Triethylhexanoin is a premium cosmetic ester prized for its lightweight, fast-absorbing properties and versatile performance in skincare and makeup formulations. This clear, odorless liquid delivers an exceptionally silky, non-greasy feel, making it ideal for products where comfort and elegance are paramount. As a highly effective emollient, it enhances skin softness while improving the spreadability and texture of formulations. Its quick absorption and non-sticky finish make it particularly valuable in serums, moisturizers, and sunscreens, where it helps active ingredients penetrate without leaving residue. The ester’s excellent stability also makes it a reliable choice for long-wear foundations, primers, and lip products, ensuring smooth application and lasting comfort.
