Description
Caprilis, commonly known as caprylic/capric triglycerides, is a completely different ingredient from virgin coconut oil, although it comes from the same source. Through physical fractionation, lauric acid and long-chain fatty acids are removed, leaving exclusively caprylic (C8) and capric (C10) acid triglycerides. The result is a colorless and odorless liquid that does not solidify at low temperatures and possesses outstanding oxidative stability. It is practically the reference oily base for any cosmetic formulation, a neutral vehicle that does not interfere with the other elements of the formula.
Its texture is fine and fairly dry, with good absorption. This neutrality makes it optimal for all skin types; it is free from major allergenic potential and remains stable over time without requiring additional antioxidants. It is the ideal base for essential oils in aromatherapeutic applications, and it is also the suitable solvent for liposoluble extracts and actives.
Characteristics
- eco Sourcing: Physical fractionation from coconut oil, free from palm or rapeseed oil
- water_do Appearance: Colorless, odorless liquid, low viscosity, fluid
- verified_user Quality: Cosmetic grade, oxidatively stable
Ingredients: Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides
Naturally derived from coconut oil. 100% natural, free of additives or preservatives.
Main Properties
- checkUniversal oily base: incorporates into any type of cosmetic formula - creams, emulsions, oily serums, balms, massage oils.
- checkNon-greasy emollient: fine texture, good absorption, leaves no unpleasant feeling on the skin - a distinct advantage over regular vegetable oils.
- checkSuitable for all skin types: including oily skin; does not clog pores and does not create sensory discomfort.
- checkIdeal vehicle for liposoluble actives: improves the skin penetration of essential oils, fat-soluble vitamins, and other actives in the oily phase.
- checkExceptional stability: does not go rancid, does not require additional antioxidants, and does not negatively influence the shelf life of the formulas in which it is included.
Usage & Synergies
Face care
Caprilis is the dilution base and vehicle of choice for almost any oily serum, emulsified serum, cream, or facial formula, including for oily, combination, or problematic skin, where heavier vegetable oils are counter-indicated. It does not have an active effect of its own on the skin, but it enhances the action of the active ingredients with which it is combined.
Practical recommendations
- Basic oily serum: Use as a base in which to dissolve essential oils, oily actives, or combine it with active vegetable oils.
- Support for concentrated actives: Dilute dense or volatile oils in Caprilis to reduce concentration and improve the sensory feel.
- Base for oil-based perfumes: Odorless and colorless, it is the preferred solvent for pulse-point perfumes based on essential oils.
Synergies in face care
As a base for a light anti-aging serum, the synergy with Cherry Kernel Oil and Coenzyme Q10 offers a fine texture for the morning routine. For oily skin with blemishes, the association with Organic Black Cumin Oil and purifying essential oils allows for the dilution of actives and substances to a precise dosage. As a base for a soothing serum, combining it with Centella Asiatica Oil and Bisabolol maintains the fine texture.
Body care
At the body level, Caprilis is the base for lightweight massage oils, after-sun formulas, non-greasy body oils, and products for the delicate skin of babies. Odorless and hypoallergenic, it is the safe choice for formulas intended for skin with multiple sensitivities.
Practical recommendations
- Neutral massage oil: Use pure or scented with essential oils. Its rapid absorption and lightweight texture make it preferable over denser oils.
- Ingredient in body creams: Use in the oil phase to prepare emulsions, creams, and body milks in various textures and themes.
- Scented body oils: Dissolve blends of essential oils in Caprilis for scented body oils with a longer fragrance duration than in alcohol.
Synergies in body care
As a relaxing massage base, the synergy with Lavender Essential Oil and Calendula Oil provides a gentle and soothing formula. For a lightweight anti-aging body oil, it pairs well, for instance, with Milk Thistle Oil, Acmella In-Tense, and Vitamin E.
Hair care
On hair, Caprilis is a good choice as a light vehicle for scalp serums and conditioner formulas for fine hair.
Practical recommendations
- Base for scalp serums: Dilute active essential oils (Rosemary, Tea Tree) in Caprilis for scalp serums with a controlled concentration.
- Leave-in for hair: Combine with Phyto-Silicone and apply a few drops to the ends — its dry texture does not weigh down the hair strands.
Synergies in hair care
As a base for an anti-dandruff scalp serum, the synergy with Organic Black Cumin Oil and Tea Tree Essential Oil allows for precise dosing of the actives.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between Caprilis and virgin Coconut Oil?
Virgin coconut oil is solid at low temperatures, smells of coconut, and feels greasy on the skin. Caprilis is its liquid fraction from which long-chain fatty acids have been removed; it is always liquid, odorless, and has a lightweight texture.
Does it smell like coconut?
No. The fractionation process completely eliminates the characteristic scent of coconut. Caprilis is perfectly odorless.
Is Caprilis a natural or synthetic product?
It is a product of 100% natural origin. Although it is processed (through hydrolysis, distillation, and re-esterification) to isolate certain fatty acids, the raw material is exclusively coconut oil, meaning it is not a product of petrochemical synthesis.

I love this oil to use it together with essential oils . Why? Because it has no odor and I can enjoy the fragrance of the chosen essential oil from through , because it has the grease removed so the skin doesn't have excess grease and clothes don't stain and neither .It is the most smooth and versatile base oil.

Must-have for any therapeutic blend or even just a simple oily scent. It has the advantage of not having its own odor to interfere with the essential oils, nor does it go rancid after a while like vegetable oils.
