What It Is

Ethylhexylglycerin is a multifunctional ingredient derived from glycerin. It acts as both a mild preservative enhancer and a skin-conditioning agent, improving the efficacy of other preservatives while also softening and smoothing the skin.

Why We Use It

We use Ethylhexylglycerin to strengthen our preservative system without the need for harsh chemicals. It boosts antimicrobial performance, helps protect against spoilage, and simultaneously improves product texture and skin feel—making formulations safer and more enjoyable to use

Origin & How It’s Made

Ethylhexylglycerin is synthesized by combining glycerin (a natural compound found in vegetable oils) with 2-ethylhexanol. This process creates a stable, versatile ingredient that is widely used in natural and clean formulations for its dual functionality.
