  • Cetearyl Isononanoate vs other similar ingredients….

    Posted by Graillotion on October 28, 2021 at 11:09 pm

    I know it is related to 

    Isononyl Isononanoate


    But I have not been able to source that small scale.

    Without making the purchase from a UK supplier….and flying that 1/2 way around the globe…can anyone say if it is worth the while…or will my Isoamyl Laurate do just as good of job?

    (being used in skincare emulsions as an emollient)

    Aloha.

    As an emollient, sure.

    As something else…one will do something that the other will not?  Maybe the CI will have a little more skin softening?

    In my experience, people can’t tell much difference in the feel of different emollients
