What is Isoamyl Laurate?

Properties of Isoamyl Laurate
Isoamyl Laurate helps to combine water and oil to form stable emulsions. This property makes it a valuable ingredient in creams, lotions and other skin care products. It nourishes the skin and makes it soft and supple. It can help relieve dryness and itching. Isoamyl Laurate helps to dissolve other fat-soluble ingredients in cosmetic products, such as color pigments or sunscreen filters.
Isoamyl Laurate has an antibacterial effect. It is quickly absorbed into the skin and does not leave an oily feeling. It is well tolerated and is also suitable for sensitive skin. It is also often used as a natural and compatible alternative to silicones.
