What Is  Isohexadecane ?

Isocetane is part of a group called isochain alkanes, a group of components with a single carbon chain. Their names reflect the length of the carbon chain, which in the case of isocetane is 16 carbons long. It comes in clear, colorless, odorless liquid form, and isododecane is another common skin care ingredient that is used in a similar way to isocetane.

Application

Isocetane is an ingredient used in skin and cosmetic formulations. It is most commonly found in foundations, sun protection products, lip products, deodorants and antiperspirants, and makeup removers. Its main functions are as solvents, cleansers, skin conditioners, and texture enhancers
 

Function

1. Isocetane is an emollient, which means the makeup will last longer on the skin and the epidermis will be better moisturized. This also allows isocetane to form a protective barrier on the surface of the skin. This is beneficial in formulas such as moisturizers, foundations, concealers and conditioners, and emollients help smooth out the appearance of dry and flaky skin, protecting the skin's natural barrier.

2. As a texture enhancer, isocetane creates a very smooth, thick formula. Even though the ingredient helps produce a rich texture, isocetane leaves a non-greasy, light and silky feeling on the skin, where it provides a powder-like effect. The texture of isocetane also makes it an excellent solvent for use in makeup removers to dissolve and remove all traces of makeup.

3. Isocetane is usually used to provide a lightweight formula for the skin that does not make it feel greasy or heavy. This also makes isocetane a useful ingredient in hair products, as it does not depress hair.

4. Another reason isocetane is used in cosmetics is that it is non-comedogenic, meaning it does not clog pores or cause blemishes.
