Description

Caprylyl glycol (1,2-octanediol) is a diol derived from caprylic acid, a saturated fatty acid found some plants (coconut and palm oils) and animals (some mammals). Caprylyl glycol is a medium chain triglyceride known to have antibactieral, antifungal and anti-inflamatory properties. Caprylyl glycol is used in cosmetics, sun screens, cleansers and mositurizers as a skin conditioner, humectant (to reduce moisture loss) and stabilizer.
