Product Description: Hydrogyl (Caprylyl Glycol) is a multifunctional ingredient derived from caprylic acid, which is found in coconut and palm oils. In cosmetic formulations, it serves several key purposes:

  • Humectant: It attracts and retains moisture in the skin.

  • Emollient: It provides a pleasant, non-greasy feel by softening and smoothing the skin.

  • Preservative Booster: It increases the effectiveness of other preservatives, allowing for lower concentrations of antimicrobial agents.

  • Stabilizer: It enhances the overall stability and shelf life of the product.

Application: Hydrogyl is valued for being gentle and non-irritating. It is used across a wide range of personal care products, including moisturizers, cleansers, and hair care.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Keep container tightly closed.

Shelf time: 2 years from manufacturing date (Unopened packing).
