Ethylhexylglycerin
A versatile ingredient that enhances skin feel, provides moisture-locking properties, and reinforces the effectiveness of preservatives in our skincare products.
Ethylhexylglycerin is a skincare ingredient that’s gaining recognition due to its multifaceted roles. As a weak preservative, it prevents the growth of microorganisms in your skincare products, thereby increasing their shelf life.
But it’s not just a preservative. Ethylhexylglycerin also acts as a skin conditioning agent, enhancing the skin’s texture and smoothness. This ingredient can help improve product spreadability, making them feel luxurious upon application. So, while Ethylhexylglycerin might not be the first ingredient you look for in a product, it plays a key part in ensuring your skincare is effective, safe, and pleasant to use.
