Science
Mechanism of Action
Tripelargonin functions primarily as an emollient by forming a non-occlusive film on the skin's surface, thereby softening and smoothing it. It acts as a skin conditioning agent, maintaining the skin in optimal condition. Furthermore, it enhances product feel, contributes to boosting SPF efficacy, and improves pigment dispersion in natural cosmetic formulations.
