isododecane Various Sizes

Isododecane is a lightweight, fast-evaporating hydrocarbon commonly used in cosmetics and personal care products. Its main purposes include:

1. Improving Spreadability
It helps products glide smoothly on the skin or hair without feeling greasy, making it ideal for foundations, lipsticks, eyeliners, and mascaras.

2. Enhancing Long Wear
Because it evaporates quickly, isododecane helps formulas set in place, increasing their resistance to smudging, fading, and transferring—especially in long-lasting or waterproof makeup.

3. Reducing Greasy Residue
It provides a silky, weightless feel and helps dilute heavier oils or waxes so the final product doesn’t feel sticky.

4. Acting as a Solvent
Isododecane can dissolve other ingredients—like pigments or film-forming agents—helping create smooth, even, and stable formulas.

You’ll often find it in products like liquid lipsticks, waterproof mascaras, long-wear foundations, setting sprays, and certain hair styling products. It’s valued for giving that “light but lasting” performance.

This product has a five year shelf life.
