Naturderm C5 INCI: Coco-Caprylate

Natural solution without compromises! Naturderm C5 is primarily used in cosmetics is an emollient made out of renewable natural sources, a mixture of esters of coconut oil and caprylic acid and capric acid.

It improves the glide of many varieties of hair and skin products during application and leaves a non-greasy, soft after touch. It's a great alternative to silicone and its benefits are solid. Thus, we recommend putting it in your products and see for yourself these benefits, especially those you would want to get a non-greasy heavy silicone effect. As it does not build up in hair like silicone it's perfect for oily hair treatments, leaving them with silkiness, ease of brushing and shine, whilst ensuring the product will not be thick and greasy.
