Caprylic Capric Triglyceride

What: Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is fractionated coconut oil, meaning a specific density of the coconut oil is extracted, similar to how cream is separated from milk.

It is used in cosmetic products as an emollient, creating a barrier on the skin which helps skin to retain moisture.
