Within a product, Caprylic Triglyceride can thicken the product and make spreadability easier by dissolving clumping compounds. An added benefit of Caprylic Triglyceride is its antioxidant properties.
Caprylic Triglyceride is made by combining glycerin with coconut oil, forming a clear liquid. Caprylic Triglyceride has not been found to be toxic for human use in concentrations under 50%.
While there is an assumption Caprylic Triglyceride can clog pores due to it being derived from coconut oil, there is no research supporting this.

Usage: 2 months (AM + PM)
Skin type | Mixed to oily skin. Skin tone is very light. The main concerns are clogged pores, and inflamed white spots.
This cream integrated my morning and night routine for the past 2 months, producing visible changes. The application is a very pleasant experience as the texture is very light and fluid and absorbs quickly, not leaving any residue. The skin feels and looks more hydrated and healthy. Inflamed spots/white spots seemed to appear less frequently while using this moisturizer. It seems to have a light fragrance although this is a fragrance-free product. One pump seems to be enough for the face but two pumps are required to cover face+neck area.
Conclusions: It's a keeper! :)
Note: This was my experience applying the product during autumn/winter time, in a place where temperatures ranged from 20ºC to -2ºC degrees and humidity were variable from periods of low to very high humidity.

This was SO close to working for me. I suspect either the triglycerides were too comedogenic for me or that I have a niacinamide sensitivity. My skin’s reaction to this was far better than most other products though, and that’s saying something. That said, the experience and consistency of this was nice. It wasn’t QUITE hydrating enough and over time my skin started to get irritated and broken out. Take that with the biggest grain of salt as my level of sensitivity is uncommon. I’d recommend this to most anyone else. Just watch out if your skin is sensitive AF like mine. I have higher hopes for the Sebamed clear gel.

So, I've been trying to heal my skin from using too many actives, and I tried this 8 indregient moisturizer since I know Avene is very recommended for sensitive skin.
As a combo/oily skin gal in a country (France) where they all have dry skin, its hard to find lightweight moisturizers; but this might be the epitome of a lightweight moisturizer that won't clog my pores.
The texture is very lightweight, not in a gel way but kinda like a runny sunscreen, very refreshing and the smell is faint of like powder or cream, not too strong at all. With 2 pumps I am able to do my entire face, and while that's great and the pump is really good for traveling and leak-proof, the amount of product for the price point is a bit off for me, keep in mind I bought it at 22 euros for 40mL (it should cost around 17 in France), which isn't ideal but its a nice simple and secure moisturizer that I know for a fact will not cause any issues to my skin. Big fan of Avene, and this hydra 10 line is the best thing for dehydrated combo skin. :)
