Isopropyl laurate is a substance used in cosmetic formulations. Isopropyl laurate is an ester compound between the isopropyl alcohol as alcoholic component and lauric acid (laureate). The substance acts as an emollient (makes the skin supple and smoothes it), binder (binds cosmetic preparations containing powders) and skin care product.

"Isopropyl" refers to the isopropyl alcohol as the alcoholic component of a substance. Laurates are salts or esters of lauric acid (dodecanoic acid).
