Caprylic alcohol is a dilating agent for the dermis. It helps to open the blood vessels. This in turn, allows more blood and nutrients to reach the skin. This promotes a natural glow to the dermis and improves the texture and elasticity of the skin. It can also be used for healing stretch marks and redness in the skin after a sunburn or any other injury. On the other hand, when applied to the hair, it makes the hair healthier.

Another important property of the alcohol is that it prevents damage of the skin caused by environmental factors such as sun rays. It is commonly used to neutralize unpleasant odors caused by heavy perfume, body products and even cosmetics. When used on the hair, it helps to protect the hair from the damaging effects of chemicals used in the making of beauty products. In addition, it can also be used as an anti-aging product.
