ISOPROPYL MYRISTATE (16 oz) is a cosmetic-grade ingredient derived from natural plant sources, designed for use in a variety of personal care and cosmetic formulations. This 16-ounce product serves as a lightweight emollient and thickening agent, commonly incorporated into soap making, fragrances, shampoos, creams, lotions, makeup removers, adhesive removers, antiperspirants, and deodorants. Its plant-based origin ensures a gentle profile suitable for formulations intended for normal to combination skin types, where a non-greasy feel is desired.

The ingredient functions by reducing the viscosity of oils and waxes, improving spreadability and absorption in creams and lotions without leaving a heavy residue. In anhydrous systems, it helps dissolve oils and fragrances, making it useful for blending essential oils into base products. For shampoo and soap making, IPM contributes to a smoother texture and can enhance the cleansing properties by aiding in the removal of oil-based impurities. As a makeup and adhesive remover, it effectively breaks down stubborn residues without excessive rubbing.

This cosmetic-grade IPM is offered in a practical 16-ounce size, providing a cost-effective option for small-scale manufacturers, hobbyists, and DIY enthusiasts. The product is free from additives and preservatives, allowing formulators to maintain control over their final product composition. It is not intended for direct skin application and should be used as a component in finished formulations. The ingredient is compatible with a wide range of other cosmetic bases, including oils, butters, and waxes, and can be adjusted based on desired consistency. Its plant-derived nature aligns with preferences for naturally sourced ingredients in personal care products.
