What is Arachidyl Proprionate?
Arachidyl Proprionate is a fatty acid ester commonly used in cosmetics and personal care products as an emollient, which helps to soften and smooth the skin. It is typically derived from arachidyl alcohol and propionic acid. The source of the arachidyl alcohol can vary; it may be derived from animal fats or synthesized from coal or limestone. Due to its potential animal origin, it is often scrutinized by those following a vegan lifestyle, and further inquiry with manufacturers is recommended if the source is not specified on the product label.
