Caprylic/Capric/Myristic/Stearic Triglyceride
What Caprylic/Capric/Myristic/Stearic Triglyceride is & what it does
A lightweight, coconut-derived emollient that softens skin and acts as a solvent for oil-soluble filters and antioxidants. It absorbs cleanly without a heavy residue.
What does Caprylic/Capric/Myristic/Stearic Triglyceride do in skincare?
Caprylic/Capric/Myristic/Stearic Triglyceride is an emollient that helps soften and condition the skin surface and gives a formula a smooth, spreadable feel. It is a triglyceride built from a blend of fatty acids. It is used to improve texture rather than as an active treatment.
Is Caprylic/Capric/Myristic/Stearic Triglyceride comedogenic?
Like other emollient triglycerides, this ingredient can feel richer on the skin, but how a product affects pores depends on the whole formula and on individual skin. There is no single comedogenic rating that applies to everyone. If you are acne-prone, patch testing and observing your skin's response is the practical approach.
Is Caprylic/Capric/Myristic/Stearic Triglyceride safe?
Triglyceride emollients of this kind are widely used in cosmetics and are generally considered safe at the levels used in formulas. They function as skin-conditioning and texture ingredients. Patch testing a new product is reasonable if you have sensitive skin.
