ZLEY® Capryloyl Salicylic Acid (CAS 78418-01-6):
Un derivato dell'acido salicilico a catena lipidica per un'esfoliazione delicata ed efficace

Panoramica del prodotto
Capryloyl Salicylic Acid is used in cosmetics as a skin conditioning agent, spot‑correcting agent, and preservative. It is a salicylic acid derivative with an added lipid chain. Compared to salicylic acid and conventional AHAs (alpha‑hydroxy acids), it penetrates the stratum corneum more easily and gradually loosens intercellular junctions, enabling more effective microexfoliation. This results in smoother, more refined skin with visibly reduced imperfections.
Salicylic acid is a key component in aspirin synthesis. Studies have shown that oral intake of salicylic acid can have effects similar to taking aspirin orally, potentially leading to fetal malformations, increased miscarriage risk, and other pregnancy complications. However, there is no scientific evidence that topical application of salicylic acid affects pregnancy. For safety reasons, it is recommended that pregnant and breastfeeding women use products containing this ingredient with caution.

ZLEY® Capryloyl Salicylic Acid – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is Capryloyl Salicylic Acid, and how is it different from regular Salicylic Acid?
A: Capryloyl Salicylic Acid (INCI: Capryloyl Salicylic Acid, CAS: 78418-01-6) is a salicylic acid derivative with an added lipid (capryloyl) chain. Compared to conventional salicylic acid and common AHAs, its key advantage is enhanced penetration into the stratum corneum. It gradually loosens intercellular junctions, enabling more effective microexfoliation. Its stronger affinity for skin cells makes it more gentle and targeted, resulting in smoother, more refined skin with visibly reduced imperfections.
Q2: What are the key benefits of ZLEY® Capryloyl Salicylic Acid?
A: It is primarily used as a agente emolliente and offers a wide range of benefits:
- Skin Refinement & Anti-Aging: Gently exfoliates dead skin cells, promotes cell renewal, helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin tone and radiance.
- Acne & Sebum Control: Effective in treating acne, comedones (blackheads/whiteheads), and can work synergistically with other ingredients for oil control.
- Illuminante: Helps fade hyperpigmentation and improve dullness by accelerating keratinocyte turnover.
Q3: Is ZLEY® Capryloyl Salicylic Acid safe? Can it be used during pregnancy?
A: According to the U.S. Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel, Capryloyl Salicylic Acid is safe at concentrations up to 0.5% in leave‑on products and up to 0.4% in rinse‑off products. However, it is a potent active ingredient and may not be suitable for everyone. Regarding use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, while there is no definitive evidence that topical application causes fetal harm, salicylate derivatives do raise safety concerns. Medical experts generally advise caution or avoidance to prevent potential skin irritation or systemic absorption concerns.
Q4: What are the formulation and processing guidelines?
A:
- Solubilization: Since it is insoluble in water, pre-dissolve in ethanol, butylene glycol, or other organic solvents before adding to the aqueous phase.
- Temperature: Avoid prolonged heating at high temperatures (melting point ≈ 115°C). It is recommended to add during the cooling phase (around 50-60°C after emulsification).
- Compatibilità: Compatible with most cosmetic ingredients. Soothing agents (e.g., bisabolol) can be added to reduce potential irritation.
- Conservazione: Store in a cool, dry place in tightly sealed containers, protected from light.
