Fractionated coconut oil, certified organic (Palm free)
Organic fractionated coconut oil, also known as Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, is derived from organic coconut oil through a process that removes long-chain fatty acids, resulting in a clear to pale yellow, lightweight, odourless oil made up primarily of medium-chain triglycerides, caprylic (C8) and capric (C10). This is a completely saturated oil, making it highly stable and resistant to oxidation. Traditionally used in the cosmetics industry, this oil has become popular for its non‑greasy feel, fast absorption, and long shelf life, making it a favoured ingredient in skincare and haircare formulations.
Skincare Uses
Lightweight and non‑greasy: Fractionated coconut oil is often used in skincare products to impart a smooth, moisturised feel without clogging pores, and it is said to blend seamlessly with other ingredients.
Stable and clear: Its clear, stable nature makes it a popular choice for serums, lotions, and creams, where it enhances texture and spreadability.
Haircare Uses
Conditioning properties: Often used in haircare formulations, this oil is said to provide a soft, non‑greasy finish, enhancing the overall feel of shampoos and conditioners.
Enhances product performance: Its lightweight composition is frequently valued for improving the spreadability and absorption of haircare products.
DIY Formulation Uses
Ideal base ingredient: Thanks to its long shelf life and compatibility with essential oils and other botanical extracts, it makes an excellent base for custom formulations. It functions as a thickener and dispersing agent, making it a great base for massage products, oil blends and oil based perfumes.
Versatile and effective: Its smooth texture and fast absorption help improve the overall performance of cosmetic emulsions, making it a versatile component in a wide range of formulations.
Note: Individual responses may vary, and a patch test is recommended before use, especially for those with known allergies or skin sensitivities.
