Isopropyl Myristate

Isopropyl Myristate is commonly used in cosmetics as an emollient and thickening
agent. It imparts a smooth, silky feel to products and helps improve their texture.
Additionally, it is known for its ability to enhance the spreadability of cosmetic
formulations. However, individuals with sensitive or acne-prone skin may need to be
cautious, as Isopropyl Myristate can sometimes contribute to pore-clogging.

Benefits: Anticeptic, prevents microbial, impoves active penetration, and provides non
greasy feel.
