Glyceryl Caprylate

Glyceryl Caprylate

A plant-derived emulsifier with mild antimicrobial activity, often used to support gentler preservative systems.

What it does

Glyceryl caprylate is a monoglyceride that helps blend oil and water and also has mild antimicrobial properties. Formulators use it both as a co-emulsifier and as a booster for the preservative system, sometimes reducing how much traditional preservative is needed. It is a quiet formulation aid with a soft skin feel.
