Application
Isopropyl Myristate (IPM) is a multifunctional ingredient—serving as an emollient, solvent, spreading agent, and penetrant. Non-occlusive and fast-spreading, it imparts an elegant, non-oily skin feel, making it an ideal carrier for cosmetic and pharmaceutical additives and an excellent solubilizer for lanolin. These properties support its broad use in topically applied cosmetic and pharmaceutical products, including liquids, creams, lotions, powders, and sprays.
