INCI: Methylheptyl Pelargonate

Essentially Natural Emolid ISN is a lightweight ester emollient used in cosmetic formulation to improve slip, spreadability, and a softer after-feel in skin and hair care products. It is commonly used in facial oils, serums, creams, conditioners, and other oil-based or emulsified products where a lighter, less greasy finish is preferred, and as a natural alternative to silicone-style smoothness. This ingredient is supplied as a clear, colourless to slightly yellowish liquid and is not a plant oil, which helps distinguish it from richer fixed oils and butters. It is also compatible with a wide range of natural oils, which makes it a flexible blending ingredient in modern formulations.

♡ Why we love it: We like Emolid ISN because it helps bring a more elegant, lightweight feel to oil-rich formulas without pushing them into a heavy or sticky direction. It is a useful option for makers who want a more refined finish while still working within natural-focused cosmetic formulation.
