FunctionEmollient
What it is — Diisopropyl Adipate (INCI: Diisopropyl Adipate) is a light emollient ester.
What it does — It softens the skin and improves spreadability, commonly used to leave a smooth, non-greasy after-feel and to help carry other ingredients.
Typical use — Found in lotions, creams, sunscreens and makeup where a light, dry-touch finish is preferred.
Who it suits / good to know — Suits those who like a fast-absorbing, weightless emollient. Very oil-reactive skin may prefer to monitor how richer ester blends behave.
Safety — Graded low risk as an inert emollient ester. This is general information, not medical advice.
