Captex® 1000 is a triglyceride formed from selected high-purity vegetable fatty acids and glycerin and carries Kosher certification. Captex® 1000 is an excellent emollient and imparts a pleasant, soft, luxurious, silky, water-resistant film as well as cooling effect to the skin. It provides a sheen and enhanced creamy texture to creams and lotions. Captex® 1000 is recommended for use in skin care creams, lotions and color cosmetics. Due to its sharp melting point and improved lubricity, Captex® 1000 offers advantages in lipstick and lip-treatment products where it imparts a long-lasting, non-greasy feel. The unique alimentation pathway typified by medium-chain triglycerides allows Captex® 1000 to function as an ingredient in cheese analogs, beverages, creamers, and nutritional supplements. Captex® 1000 can be blended with powdered carriers at high levels resulting in a non-greasy, non-oily, free-flowing product. It is manufactured in USA.
