Isopentyldiol is a chemical compound used as a multipurpose ingredient in the cosmetic industry and personal care products. It is a clear, colorless and odorless liquid that is completely soluble in water. Isopentyldiol is known for its ability to improve the texture and feel of products on the skin, making them silky and non-sticky. In addition, it acts as an emulsion stabilizer, which means it helps maintain an even dispersion of oil and water in formulations, and is used as a carrier for active ingredients to ensure their effectiveness.
Isopentyldiol is safe to use, environmentally friendly, and a common ingredient in moisturizers, anti-aging creams, balms, gels, serums, and eye and lip care products.
