Ethylhexyl Cocoate
Other names: Octyl cocoate
Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)
Ethylhexyl Cocoate, which is also known as Octyl Cocoate, is a fatty substance of plant origin that is extracted from coconuts. Its main purpose is as an emollient and emulsifier, which means that it helps to keep a mixture of substances together that would normally separate. Ethylhexyl Cocoate is a mediator that can ensure the right combination of oil and water, which is key for many cosmetic products.
Thus, Ethylhexyl Cocoate is mainly used in cosmetics and personal care products, where it plays a key role in many different types of products, including makeups, skin creams, soaps, shampoos, sunscreens and more. This is because it has the ability to retain moisture, ensuring that skin and hair remain hydrated and healthy-looking. Ethylhexyl Cocoate is also popular for its emollient and smoothing properties, which is beneficial for skin creams and other products designed to treat dry and damaged skin. Its neutral scent and colour make it an ideal ingredient for a wide range of cosmetic products.
