What Is It?
Isostearyl Neopentanoate is the ester of isostearyl alcohol and neopentanoic acid. In cosmetics and personal care products, Isostearyl Neopentanoate is used in the formulation of eye makeup, primarily of eye shadows, and in blushers and makeup foundations. It is also used in skin care products, including skin cleansers, and moisturizers.

Why is it used in cosmetics and personal care products?
Isostearyl Neopentanoate acts as a lubricant on the skin surface, giving it a soft and smooth appearance. When used in the formulation of pressed powder makeup, it functions as a binder, holding together the ingredients of the compressed tablet or cake.

Scientific Facts: 
Isostearyl Neopentanoate is the ester of isostearyl alcohol and neopentanoic acid. Isostearyl alcohol is a mixture of branched chain 18-carbon aliphatic alcohols.

Isostearyl Neopentanoate is used in cosmetics for its emollient properties. It functions as a pigment-dispersing agent in eye makeup preparations and as a binder for pressed powder makeup.

It provides improved spreadability and decreased oiliness. Used in sun care, skin care and lipstick.
Isostearyl neopentanoate is an emollient, binder, and skin conditioning agent with a moisturizing and softening effect. It has minimal allergenicity potential.

ISOSTERYL NEOPENTANOATE (CAS No. Up to 5 hours natural shine control with natural minerals. Used in sun care, skin care and lipstick.

APPEARANCE
Clear liquid with mild odor
FUNCTION
Is a low cloud point emollient for bath oils, creams and lotions that imparts freeze-thaw stability. I It is also a binder for pigment systems in make-up preparations.

Function in the product
Affects the application properties of cosmetics - gives a good glide when spreading (e.g. lipsticks on the lips), reduces sticking and greasiness of the cosmetic. Stick plasticizer - gives the sticks elasticity, prevents them from crushing. A binder, a substance that binds the ingredients of cosmetics.

Cosmetic action
The so-called emollient dry. Used in skin and hair care products, it creates an occlusive layer (film) on the surface, which prevents excessive evaporation of water from the surface. It is an indirect moisturizing effect, thanks to which it conditions, i.e. softens and smoothes the skin and hair (reduces TEWL- transepidermal water loss).

Security
Ingredient safety
Isostearyl Neopentanoate is safe to use in cosmetic products. Cosmetic Ingredient Review: CIR experts in a 2015 report assessed that the included alkyl esters (including Isostearyl Neopentanoate) are safe for use in cosmetic products. Isostearyl Neopentanoate did not show any irritating or sensitizing effects in studies.

Safety of pure substance
Not classified as a dangerous substance according to chemical regulations.

A mild, emollient liquid that can improve product spreadability and gives a silky and non-oily feel to the cosmetic products.
