About this ingredient

Glyceryl Caprylate is a naturally-derived emollient and skin conditioning agent composed of glycerin and caprylic acid (an 8-carbon fatty acid). It functions as a humectant and emollient in cosmetic formulations, helping to improve skin hydration and texture while providing mild preservative-boosting properties. It is commonly used in skincare and sun care products for its skin-conditioning benefits and ability to enhance formula stability.
