Decyl Cocoate

Description

Decyl Cocoate is a gentle ester emollient derived from coconut oil and decyl decanol (a fatty alcohol). In cosmetics, it is used as a softener that provides a light, silky texture without greasiness. It improves the distribution of the product, creates a pleasant "dry" glide, and also helps to retain moisture in the skin without clogging pores. It is often included in the composition of creams, lotions, sunscreens, body oils, and decorative cosmetics.
