Nicomenthyl 20 (pure menthyl nicotinate) is a unique multi-functional sensorial active resulting from the chemical reaction between two components: natural menthol and niacin (vitamin B3).
It acts as a fixative, carrier and booster for other lipophilic actives or other sensorial agents. Having self-emulsifying properties makes it ideal for “less is more” formulations.
- Providing high percutaneous delivery of niacin: nearly 8 times higher than the skin absorption rate of niacinamide, as proven by full scale in vitro and in vivo studies.
- Detoxifying, antipollution, antioxidant, repairing and microcirculation enhancer.
- Purity > 99%. Colorless, odorless.
