Pyridoxine dilaurate, the di-ester of pyridoxine with lauric acid is used in cosmetic formulations. It acts as an antistatic agent (reduces static electricity by neutralizing the electrical charge on the surface, for example of hair), as a combability aid (reduces or prevents tangling of the hair due to changes or damage on the hair surface and thus improves combability) and as a moisturizer (increases the water content of the skin).
