Diisopropyl Dimer Dilinoleate

What Diisopropyl Dimer Dilinoleate is & what it does

Diisopropyl Dimer Dilinoleate is an emollient ester formed from isopropyl alcohol and dimer dilinoleic acid, a fatty acid derivative. It is used to give formulas a rich, cushiony, non-tacky slip and to act as a pigment-wetting agent that disperses color smoothly. Because it is a heavier, conditioning emollient, it is common in lip products, foundations, and creams. It is generally considered safe and skin-softening.
