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.

Feels nice and does not irritate sensitive skin
I've been using this toner for about six months in the mornings. Overall I like it. When my skin feels rough after I cleanse it I swab the toner over my face and my skin feels noticably smoother.
I have combination skin that is prone to clogged pores and cystic acne. The toner goes on easily, has a light fruity fragrance and is a pretty creamy pink color. It does a good job of wiping away excess eye makeup without irritating the sensitive skin around your eyes.
My only complaint is that my skin is noticeably shiny looking after I apply this. This seems weird that a toner can make your skin appear more shiny than before you apply it. Overall though the feeling of my skin and the fact that it isn't irritating makes it close to a 5 star. Would purchase again.
