Menthyl Lactate is light yellow to colorless in color and is a viable substance that has a mild menthol odor and a cooling effect on the skin. It is soluble in water and most organic solvents. Menthol itself is an alcohol that comes from mint, and lactic acid is an organic acid found in muscle tissue and in various fermentation products.

Menthyl Lactate is used in a variety of body and skin care products such as various creams, lotions, aftershaves and other cosmetic products. Due to its cooling and refreshing properties, it is especially popular in after-sun skin care products. The cooling effect of Menthyl Lactate can also relieve the burning sensation after shaving. In addition, this ingredient is also used in some hair care products such as conditioners or shampoos. Since Menthyl Lactate is not considered an allergen, its use is generally considered safe.
