Sunless tanners, facial and eye-zone treatments, skin serums, anti-acne formulations and make-up removers are just some of the products whose performance can be improved with the use of Dimethyl Isosorbide (DMI) in formulation. In addition to improving performance, its use as an epidermal penetration enhancer can allow formulators to reduce the amount of actives required to achieve effects, resulting in reduced formulation costs, and lower skin irritation with aggressive active ingredients. Dimethyl Isosorbide (DMI) offers: Enhanced penetration of actives to the epidermis, reaching areas that would otherwise go untreated Improved shelf stability of active ingredients, including actives susceptible to hydrolysis and transesterification Miscibility in water, most organic solvents and non-ionic surfactants The ability to transport water soluble actives into skin without recrystallization of the active ingredient Dimethyl Isosorbide is soluble in a variety of ingredients including water, cottonseed oil, isopropanol, isopropyl myristate, propylene glycol, polysorbate 20, and polysorbate 80. It is insoluble in hydrogenated castor oil, lanolin, mineral oils or silicone oil (dimethicone).
