PEG-6 caprylic/capric glycerides is a water soluble emollient derived from coconut fatty acids. It is a water-loving, thin, and transparent liquid that is soluble in aqueous surfactant solutions. It can solubilize small amounts of oils like fragrance, essential oils, and oil-soluble ingredients while providing a pleasant skin feel.
As an excellent emollient and skin-replenishing component, its fatty acid mixture helps the skin to replenish its surface and prevent moisture loss. It is well-tolerated and gentle, making it a popular choice for non-ionic, oil-free moisturizing in skin care products.

Helps to blend oil and water phases in formulations, creating stable emulsions.

Acts as a skin-conditioning agent, providing hydration and improving skin feel.

Aids in dissolving other ingredients, particularly oils and fragrances, in water-based products.
Mainly used in makeup remover water as a surfactant to dissolve oil components. It effectively breaks down and removes sebum, making it ideal for oil-free facial products.
