Description
Coco-Silicone – Natural Emollient, Plant-Derived Silicone Alternative
Coco-Silicone is a modern, light-textured emollient of natural origin. It imparts a pleasant, silky, non-greasy feel to the skin and demonstrates a superior sensory profile. Spreading very quickly, it offers smoothness and performance in skin and hair care applications.
It is a 100% plant-derived ester that functions as an ultra-lightweight emollient with a high spreading rate, serving as a natural substitute for certain synthetic silicones. Thanks to its minimal dynamic viscosity, Coco-Silicone penetrates rapidly, delivers a dry-touch sensation, and optimizes the spreadability of dense creams and balms.
Ingredients (INCI): Coco-Caprylate.
Technical Characteristics
- Appearance: Colorless fluid liquid, almost odorless.
- Solubility: Miscible in oils at room temperature.
- Cosmetic Function: Lightweight emollient, texture modifier, pigment dispersing agent, biodegradable silicone alternative.
- Indicative Dosage: 1% - 20%
Main Properties
- Lightweight Sensory Feel: Gives cosmetic products a light, silky texture and rapid penetration, leaving the skin feeling smooth and velvety.
- Anti-Soaping Effect: When added to emulsions, it reduces or eliminates the formation of white streaks during cream application, an effect often caused by waxes or structural emulsifiers.
- Hair Conditioner: Coats the hair fiber in an extremely fine hydrophobic film, smoothing the cuticle and adding shine without weighing down the hair or leaving it sticky.
- Non-Comedogenicity, Tolerance: Unlike rich vegetable oils, Coco-Silicone is a stable saturated ester that does not undergo peroxidation on the skin, reducing the risk of clogged pores and showing optimal tolerance on oily or acne-prone skin.
- Structural Mimicry of Silicones: Faithfully reproduces the sensory evaporation curve and slip profile of cyclomethicone, although it does not physically evaporate, but rather penetrates quickly into the superficial layers of the epidermis.
Applications
- Lightweight, hydrating day facial creams suitable for combination, oily, or acne-prone skin.
- "Oil-free" creams, serums, and foundations.
- "Silicone-free" hair serums, split-end smoothing oils, and shine sprays.
- "Dry oils" for the body and lightweight massage blends.
- Makeup products: fluid foundations, makeup bases (primers), concealers, and biphasic makeup removers.
- Sunscreen lotions and creams with a lightweight texture and high spreadability.
Formulation Guide
- Procedure: Add to the oil phase of the formula. It can be heated together with emulsifiers and waxes in hot-process emulsions or integrated into completely cold-process formulations.
- Recommended Usage Dosage: 1% - 15% in emulsions (creams, serums); over 20% in dry body oils, hair serums, or anhydrous products.
- Stability: Stable against oxidation and heat resistant, stable across a wide pH range.
Safety in Use and Storage
Safety Profile: Biodegradable raw material, safe for cosmetic use. Well tolerated by all skin types.
Precautions: For external cosmetic use only.
Storage: Store in a closed container, in a dry and cool place.

I use coco-silicone in several formulas, especially when I have a greasier butter or oil in the formula. It helps absorption and reduces the oily feel of the emulsion.
I use it as a base for the other cosmetic actives, to create a customized oil. it is light and does not make the complexion greasy. thank you
I have started to use it more and more in products, I love what this ingredient offers, game changer in a formula..Super.The volatile one I don't really like because of the odor.
Vegetable silicone has a remarkable sensory profile, it is an alternative to the synthetic silicones used in cosmetic compositions, especially cyclomethicone. It is not volatile, but it is penetrating, quickly absorbed and does not leave a greasy feeling on the skin. It has a high degree of distribution on the skin, gives a pleasant, comfortable feel and is biocompatible with the skin's natural barrier.
I use it for my hair and scalp oil. I like that it doesn't feel greasy after application, but silky. In combination with squalane and caprilis I make a body oil after shower.
The product is wonderful but it's hard to pour out of the bottle without spilling. It would be very helpful if the bottle was fitted with a dropper.
A LIGHT TEXTURE. IN COMBINATION WITH OTHER OILS GIVES THEM A MUCH IMPROVED FEEL.
It is an indispensable product in creams (in my opinion). It leaves the skin silky smooth plus there is no greasy feeling.
An ideal emollient that confera a non greasy texture to the skin.Il use for formulating products for hair, skin, body.
I use it in my primer recipe. I like it very much. It has a fine texture and is easy to work with.
I use it in a hair serum, which is very good for dehydrated and split ends. It isn't greasy and doesn't weigh down the hair.
I've used it in a mix with vitamin c. Wonderfully good. I'll see other recipes to follow.
It absorbs immediately into the skin, does not leave the skin oily. I use it especially in creams with combination skin and I am very satisfied
I ordered this ingredient to incorporate into my hair products and have created a mask, shampoo, and serum for my ends. I am pleased with the results. The serum is wonderful! I worked very easily with this ingredient. I love that it's versatile and I'm going to put it in hand and body creams, and why not even in skin care creams.
For hair, it has an antiseptic and protective direction, helps to unravel fragile or damaged curls, and is also suitable for leave-in care (oils, serums, styling products, oil sprays). I also periodically make a cream with it for the face, but I add the minimum dose to the composition
It absorbs immediately into the skin, does not leave the skin oily, I use it for a long time in all kinds of creams and I am extremely satisfied.
I love it! I tried the recipe with this eye primer oil and it's really good. Both the oil and the recipe. Super good primer and lasts all day and summer and easy to prepare. Thank you Elemental!
I like it a lot. No greasy feeling and at the same time gives an elegant emollience to the products. In any product it changes the feel of the skin.
