Appearance

Light yellow clear liquid

Description

Is a universal cosmetic emollient with medium spreading properties and is a low-viscous solvent for active ingredients, oil-soluble UV filters and pigments.

Function

Isopropyl myristate is used in cosmetic and topical medicinal preparations where good absorption through the skin is desired. It is also used as a pesticide-free treatment against head lice which works by dissolving the wax that covers the exoskeleton of head lice, killing them by dehydration. It is also the non-aqueous component of the two-phase mouthwash, Dentyl pH, where it removes bacteria from the oral cavity.
