GLIKOL KAPRYLOWY (Caprylyl Glycol)

Description

Caprylyl glycol is an alcohol derived from caprylic acid which is found naturally in palm and coconut oils. Manufacturers love it for a few reasons: first, it improves spreadability and ultimately the feel of the product on your skin. Secondly, because it is antimicrobial it has preservative-like properties. Caprylyl glycol is also a humectant, meaning it helps skin retain water. This is important for preventing skin dryness while at the same time slowing down signs of aging.
