General Description:

Coco-Caprylate is a natural-based emollient derived from coconut alcohol and caprylic acid, designed to offer a lightweight, silicone-like feel without the use of silicones. It is a clear, low-viscosity liquid that spreads easily and absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving a greasy residue. Due to its excellent sensory profile and natural origin, Coco-Caprylate is widely used in modern skincare and haircare formulations, especially those focused on clean beauty and sustainable sourcing. It is available for bulk supply and is ideal for manufacturers looking to replace synthetic emollients with eco-friendly alternatives.

Uses in the Cosmetics Industry:

Coco-Caprylate is commonly used in:


Facial creams, serums, and lotions for a silky, non-oily skin feel.
Sunscreens and moisturizers as a natural alternative to silicones, improving spreadability and absorption.
Hair conditioners and styling products to enhance softness and shine without weighing down the hair.
Color cosmetics, such as foundations and lipsticks, to improve texture and glide.
Formulations targeting sensitive or oily skin types, due to its non-comedogenic and lightweight nature.
Its natural origin, excellent skin compatibility, and ability to enhance product aesthetics make it highly popular in both conventional and natural formulations.

Side Effects & Hazards:

Coco-Caprylate is generally considered very safe and well-tolerated for cosmetic use, with a low risk of irritation or sensitization. It is non-toxic, non-comedogenic, and biodegradable, making it suitable for a wide range of skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin. There are no known major health hazards associated with its use in cosmetics. However, as with all raw materials, manufacturers should avoid inhalation or direct contact with the eyes during processing, and standard safety practices such as wearing gloves and using in a well-ventilated area should be observed. It should be stored in a cool, dry place in sealed containers to maintain quality and stability.
