Inolex Launches Coconut-Derived Sensory Enhancer for Skin and Fragrance

The new technology transitions from a lightweight oil into a cushiony, non-greasy finish on the skin. Company testing indicates that a serum containing 7.5% of the ingredient improves skin scaliness by 33% and smoothness by 30% after a single application. Beyond skincare benefits, the substance serves as a stabilizer for fragrances, significantly reducing the loss of volatile compounds like d-Limonene during shelf storage.

Art Knox, President of Inolex, noted that the product addresses a common industry challenge where brands traditionally rely on three or more ingredients to achieve the same sensory and performance outcomes. The material is 85% natural, palm-free, and vegan, positioning it as a sustainable alternative to dimethicone. With a Natural Origin Index of 0.85, the company expects the additive to meet growing consumer demand for high-performance, silicone-free formulations in body and skin care.
