Rating: GOOD
Categories: Emollients
According to the Personal Care Product Council’s Ingredient Infobase, dicaprylyl carbonate functions as a skin-conditioning agent, emollient and solvent. It may be derived from synthetic or animal sources; 

Dicaprylyl carbonate is desirable for products such as facial moisturizers because it spreads easily and leaves a velvety feel on skin without seeming greasy or slick. It also helps enhance the absorption of other ingredients in a cosmetic formula.

Dicaprylyl Carbonate is a fast spreading emollient with a velvet dry skin feel for all cosmetic applications, and is particularly suited for sun care formulations due to its solubilizing capacities as well as being suited for dispersing pigments. Besides this, it supports the cleansing efficacy of emulsion based face care cleanser in a positive way. It is a clear, colorless, almost odorless oil of low polarity with low molecular weight, and a spreading value of approx. 1.600 mm^2/10 min. Dicaprylyl Carbonate has a viscosity (20°C) of 6-8 mPas, a cloud point of < -20°C, and a content Dioctylcarbonate of min. 96%. This product is part of the "Mass Balance" range, based on RSPO-certified palm kernel oil

Dikaprilil Carbonate, a very fine touch, velvety and fast penetrating softening and texturizing agent, gives your skin a creamy and velvety appearance like professional creams. This vegetable origin oil is very stable to oxidation and is an excellent alternative to paraffin oils and synthetic silicones. It helps alleviate the "oily" feel of vegetable oils in non-comedogenic, natural formulations. It is also used to increase the cleaning power of milk and oils.

Features
Touching agent: It is very thin, soft and velvety at first, then penetrates very quickly with a dry surface without leaving an oily effect.
It alleviates the oily feel of vegetable oils in natural oils
Perfect spread
Increases the cleaning power
Very good skin compatibility, well tolerated
Provides a good pigment distribution in make-up products.
Excellent alternative to paraffin oils and synthetic silicones
Very good oxidation stability
Readily biodegradable

Due to its very dry, thin and velvety feel, slipperiness and oxidation stability, Dicaprylyl carbonate is an excellent alternative to synthetic paraffin and silicone oils used in most "classic" cosmetics.
Paraffin oils are petroleum derived mineral oils (hydrocarbons). In the cosmetics industry, these hydrocarbons are refined for use, they are very stable (oxidized), colorless and odorless (unlike vegetable oils) and are inexpensive. Therefore, they are ideal bases for cosmetics produced in large scale, white, perfectly standardized and with an extremely long service life. However, these hydrocarbons form a film that has an affinity with the skin and has only one cosmetic property (softening on the skin) as a softening and preventing the cream from drying.
Synthetic silicones, which are widely used in non-natural cosmetics, are polymers based on silicone (methicone, dimethicone, cyclomethicone, cyclopentasiloxane, cyclohexaciloxane and their derivatives). These more or less volatile synthetic oils make it possible to tailor the touch and texture of products to marketing needs while increasing the volume of cosmetics at a lower cost. Their main drawback is that besides being produced in a very non-ecological way, they are very little biodegradable and therefore potentially accumulate in the environment.
In unnatural hair care shampoos and also in many skincare, silicones actually have no real cosmetic properties other than their tactile feel and cannot give up their ability to form a film or soften the hair.

We offer you an alternative to the products listed above, herbal and biodegradable: softeners that you can use in homemade cosmetics that provide a fine touch and sensory professional cosmetic effect.
Dicaprilyl Carbonate is particularly interesting with excellent spreading and velvety. It feels very "cocoon" and dull at first, but it penetrates very quickly and leaves a very dry finish. It will be particularly appreciated in face and body creams and milks, Baby care products, sun care products, makeup removers and makeup products (eg "oil free" foundation).
Coco oil is another emollient that feels dry to the touch, especially appreciated in hair care (serums, oils, creams without rinsing). It has a sheath and protective effect as an alternative to synthetic silicones. In skin care, the initial touch is drier and softer, Dicaprylyl carbonate penetrates less quickly and allows the product to provide a comfortable long feel, which is interesting to the products.
