About

On an ingredient list it is written as Ethylhexylglycerin. It is synthetic (glyceryl ether).

In the Formula

It protects the formula. It guards the product against spoilage or oxidation across its shelf life. Formally it is classed as preservative booster/potentiator; secondary skin conditioner.

The Evidence

It is a listed cosmetic ingredient with an established function in the EU CosIng inventory. We hold no finished product study on it and do not imply one. We cite what the ingredient is assessed for, not what a finished product was claimed to do.

Honest Limits

Ethylhexylglycerin does its job inside the formula. It is not an active, and nothing on this page should be read as a treatment claim.
