Myristyl myristate Use and Manufacturing

Uses

myristyl myristate is an occlusive skin-conditioning agent that enhances product spreadability and can reduce a product’s transparency. It is particularly useful in emulsions that have to “melt” once they come in contact with the skin. This is an ester formed by the combination of the myristyl alcohol and myristic acid fractions of coconut oil.
