Capryloyl Salicylic Acid

What is octanoyl salicylic acid?

Capryloyl salicylic acid, also known as 2-hydroxy-5-(1-oxooctyl)benzoic acid, is a chemical substance. Its molecular structure is characterized by salicylic acid with oxooctyl attached to the 5th position of the benzene ring. It is an upgraded component of salicylic acid, with precise targets between the corneocyte desmosomes and the corneocyte membrane, and precise exfoliation, which is better and gentler than salicylic acid. It has the chemical effect of whitening and alleviating skin aging, and is usually added to cosmetics as a beauty ingredient, with multiple functions such as moisturizing, anti-acne, and anti-oxidation.

Product Features

Strong lipophilicity: A lipophilic hydrocarbon group is introduced on its benzene ring, which makes it more lipophilic than traditional salicylic acid and easier to penetrate into the stratum corneum, thereby effectively exfoliating.

Mildness: Due to its lipophilic properties, it is less irritating than salicylic acid. This makes it an ideal choice for treating acne and improving skin texture, especially for sensitive skin.

Versatility: In addition to its exfoliating and anti-inflammatory effects, it has also been shown to perform well in anti-aging and improving pigmentation.

• It can promote the reorganization of epidermal cell tissue, stimulate cell absorption, improve the dull state of the skin, and can also fade spots and make the skin color whiter.

Whitening Mechanism

1. Exfoliation and smooth skin: With good exfoliation ability, it can help remove old stratum corneum and make the skin smoother and flatter. This smooth stratum corneum helps reflect light, so that the skin appears shiny and transparent, and reduces the visibility of dullness and spots.
2. Anti-inflammatory effect: It can reduce the production of inflammatory mediators, which often stimulate the production of melanocytes and lead to the formation of spots. By reducing inflammation, capryloyl salicylic acid helps the skin return to a closer natural state and improves the skin tone.
3. Oil control and pore unclogging: It can penetrate deep into the pores to help remove excess oil and blockages, which can not only prevent acne and inflammatory skin problems, but also reduce yellow pigmentation on the skin surface and improve the brightness of the skin.
4. Promotion of skin metabolism: It can also promote skin metabolism and accelerate the renewal of epidermal cells, which helps to timely renew keratinocytes containing melanin and reduce the accumulation of melanin on the skin.

Suitable skin types

Acne skin: It can effectively reduce the incidence of acne by dissolving keratin and unclogging pores.

Aging skin: This ingredient can promote the renewal of epidermal cells and increase epidermal thickness, thereby improving superficial wrinkles on the skin and helping the skin appear smoother and tighter.

Skin with better tolerance: Compared with ordinary salicylic acid, it has better lipophilicity and permeability, and is less irritating to the skin, so it is suitable for those skin types that are sensitive to salicylic acid or cannot tolerate traditional salicylic acid products.

Main application areas

Medicine: As a raw material, it is widely used in the production of drugs for treating skin diseases, such as anti-acne gel and eczema cream.

Cosmetics: Due to its excellent exfoliation and anti-inflammatory effects, it has become a common ingredient in high-end skin care products.

Personal care products: Personal cleansing products including shampoo and shower gel have also begun to add it to enhance the mildness and cleansing effect of the product.
