Caprylyl Glycol

Caprylyl Glycol is one of the ingredients in San Shield, primarily serving as a thickening agent to improve the texture of the product. In the Silk Embroidery Skincare Wall, Caprylyl Glycol functions as a preservative and humectant, and its essential components are derived from coconut or palm oil.

01 Thickening agent:

Caprylyl Glycol is commonly used as a thickening agent to increase the viscosity and stability of cosmetics and skincare products. By forming a network structure within the product, Caprylyl Glycol can capture and absorb water molecules, thereby increasing the product’s thickness. This makes the product easier to apply and facilitates controlled release, enhancing the user experience.

02 Texture improvement:

Due to its thickening properties, Caprylyl Glycol can enhance the texture of skincare products. It can make the product smoother, softer, and easier to spread on the skin. This is beneficial for different types of skincare products, such as gels, lotions, and creams, improving their spreadability and absorbability.

03 Stabilizer:

Caprylyl Glycol can also act as a stabilizer, helping to maintain the formula’s stability in skincare products. It can prevent the separation or precipitation of product ingredients, thereby extending the shelf life of the product and ensuring even distribution of the ingredients. This is crucial for maintaining consistent product performance and effectiveness.

It is important to note that Caprylyl Glycol is typically used at low concentrations as a thickening agent and stabilizer. High concentrations of Caprylyl Glycol may result in excessive thickness, making it difficult to apply and absorb, and it could potentially cause skin irritation. Therefore, it is crucial for San Shield to use Caprylyl Glycol within the appropriate concentration range to ensure the safety and suitability of the product.

Disclaimer:

It’s important to note that everyone’s reaction to these ingredients may vary. It is recommended to perform a patch test on a small area of skin before using any new product to ensure there are no adverse reactions.
