caprylyl glycol, glyceryl caprylate/caprate

EasySafe GC 8 is a mild, easy-to-use skin humectant that creates self-preserving cosmetics.  It is suitable for sensitive skin thanks to its component, Glyceryl Caprylate/Caprate, a mild refatting agent derived from vegetable oil.  EasySafe GC 8  is a fragrance-free solution and therefore ideal for low-odor products.

EasySafe GC 8 has a broad-spectrum antimicrobial effect, in particular against yeasts and bacteria. It is non-ionic and therefore exhibits an antimicrobial effect up to pH 7.0.  It is particularly suitable for O/W emulsions.

EasySafe GC 8  is a stable liquid which can be used in hot and cold processes. It is a synergistic combination of three components:

Caprylyl Glycol, a well known skin humectant and antimicrobial boosting agent.

Glyceryl Caprylate/Caprate, a biobased humectant and re-fatting agent that has antibacterial properties and is exceptionally mild to the skin.

Glycerin, a well-known, 100% biobased skin humectant manufactured from European oilseeds.
