Isopropyl Myristate

Isopropyl Myristate (IPM) is a colorless, liquid oleochemical derived from esterized Myristic acid and Isopropyl alcohol. Isopropyl myristate is a common ingredient in cosmetic products, particularly moisturizing personal care products like lotions, creams, or serums. It is an extremely effective emollient and can act as a thickening or lubricating agent. Isopropyl Myristate is unique in that it enhances the penetration of other ingredients in a formulation.
