  • caprylic/ Capric Triglyceride

    Posted by mehdilazrak91 on February 12, 2019 at 7:10 am

    Hello, 

    Would any vegetable oil replace caprylic/ Capric Triglyceride or is caprylic/ Capric Triglyceride better in terms of feel.

    Also, can other esters such as Isopropyl Myristate and Myristyl Myristate replace caprylic/ Capric Triglyceride?

    Thanks,

    IPM can replace caprylic/capric but vegetable oil will not replace ester in terms of feel. Oils are too heavy. The closest you can get is fractionated coconut oil.
