why we use caprylyl glycol
The Basics
Caprylyl Glycol is a synthetic diol commonly used in cosmetics and personal care products. A doil is an organic compound with two hydroxyl groups, also known as a glycol. As a humectant, it attracts and retains moisture, helping to keep the skin hydrated. Additionally, it serves as a preservative, preventing the growth of bacteria and extending the shelf life of formulations. Its multifunctional properties make it a valuable ingredient in various skincare and haircare products.
