Harm score: 3 (Harmless chemicals)


Dicaprylyl Ether, also known as Dioctyl Ether or 1-octoxyoctane, is a light, unstable ester that is often used in cosmetics and skin care due to its unique properties. This substance is characterized by its high resistance to oxidation and its ability to be quickly absorbed into the skin without leaving a greasy feeling. Dicaprylyl Ether is produced from the acids contained in palm and coconut oil and is a colourless liquid with a slightly oily consistency.

Dicaprylyl Ether is most commonly used in tanning oils, moisturizers, cleansing lotions, decorative cosmetics or shampoos. Its main use is as an emollient - a substance that softens and moisturizes the skin. Its ability to absorb quickly into the skin without leaving a greasy feeling makes Dicaprylyl Ether a favorite of cosmetic and skin care manufacturers. Manufacturers often use this substance as a base for making various types of creams, lotions and other cosmetic products. It is also popular in the industry as an ingredient in fragrance blends for perfumes.
