L-Menthol Lactate is a synthetic ester compound derived from L-menthol and lactic acid. It is a white, odorless or slightly menthol-scented crystalline powder at room temperature.
This compound is well-known for its mild and long-lasting cooling sensation, which is gentler than pure menthol and does not cause irritation to the skin or mucous membranes. It has good thermal stability and compatibility with most cosmetic raw materials, including oils, emulsifiers and aqueous formulations. Moreover, it is non-greasy and easy to spread, making it a popular ingredient in personal care products.

Applications

  1. Personal Care and Cosmetics Industry
    • Skin Care Products: It is widely incorporated into moisturizers, lotions, facial masks and after-sun repair products. The cooling effect helps relieve skin discomfort caused by sun exposure, shaving or external stimuli, and also brings a refreshing using experience.
    • Hair Care Products: Added to shampoos, conditioners and hair serums, it can reduce scalp itching and bring a cool feeling that lasts for a long time.
    • Oral Care Products: Used in toothpastes, mouthwashes and breath fresheners, it delivers a mild cooling sensation in the mouth without causing a harsh or burning feeling.
    • Sunscreens and Deodorants: In sunscreens, it offsets the sticky feeling of the product and relieves sun-induced skin heat; in deodorants, it provides a long-lasting fresh and cool effect.
  2. Pharmaceutical Field
    • It is used as an auxiliary ingredient in topical analgesic ointments, antipruritic creams and cooling patches. Its mild cooling property can help alleviate minor muscle soreness, skin itching and other discomforts.
