AZBB Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides (CCT) – Liquid Coconut Oil Carrier | Arizona Bath & Body LLC

AZBB Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides (CCT) – a refined coconut oil ester for personal care

AZBB Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides is a 100% pure liquid coconut oil ester designed for modern skincare and haircare formulations. The texture is lightweight and non-greasy, delivering a silky, almost powdery feel that fades quickly into the skin. Its nearly odorless profile makes it an adaptable base for products where clarity and a dry finish are valued, from facial serums to lightweight lotions.

Why formulators choose CCT

This specialized ester of caprylic (C8) and capric (C10) acids stands apart from traditional carrier oils. It offers excellent oxidative stability, a clear appearance, and a low-odor footprint, helping keep formulations stable and easy to blend. In practice, CCT often yields a smooth, non-oily afterfeel that many users perceive as refreshing rather than heavy.

• Lightweight, fast-absorbing texture that won’t leave a greasy afterfeel
• Odorless and clear, supporting versatile product aesthetics
• Strong solvent properties for oil-soluble actives and essential oils
• Gentle enough for sensitive or oily skin and less likely to clog pores

Real-world uses you can try

Use CCT as the carrier oil backbone in facial serums, lightweight moisturizers, or hair serums. It blends well into emulsions requiring a dry finish, and it serves as a reliable base for DIY lotions, body oils, or leave-in hair blends. The result is a clean, easily spreadable base that supports a wide range of cosmetic actives without overpowering scent.

• Skin creams, facial oils, and lightweight lotions
• Hair conditioners, leave-in treatments, and scalp care blends
• Oil-in-water emulsions needing a dry, non-greasy ester
• Base for essential oils and other oil-soluble actives

Formulation notes and usage guidance

Typical usage is in the oil phase, ranging from a small percentage to the full formulation (2–100%), depending on the desired texture. It pairs well with other carriers to produce smooth textures that feel comfortable for longer wear. Shelf life is up to 48 months when stored cool, sealed, and dry. All in all, AZBB CCT offers a premium, non-greasy option for skin and hair products that aim for a lightweight, efficient feel.
