1,2-Hexanediol

1,2-Hexanediol acts as an excellent moisturizer, preservative, and antiseptic booster. It effectively locks in skin moisture, reduces transdermal water loss, and increases the moisture content of the skin. 1,2-Hexanediol is virtually colorless and odorless, soluble in both aqueous and oily phases, and remains stable even at extreme temperatures and pH levels, without affecting the stability of the lotion. It can be used in most cosmetic formulations. 1,2-Hexanediol is a safe and mild compound, with virtually no irritation, making it suitable for use in infant and sensitive skin formulations. 1,2-Hexanediol is safe, mild, and virtually non-irritating for infant formulations and sensitive skin formulations.

Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate

Ascorbate tetraisopalmitate, a vitamin C derivative, is stable at high temperatures and has excellent solubility in oil. It has amazing skin absorbability and is broken down into free vitamin C in the skin to achieve its physiological function. In Japan, it is approved as a drug-like activity (at 3% concentration). In Korea, it is also registered as a skin-brightening efficacy ingredient (at a 2% concentration), which can inhibit the activity of tyrosinase and the production of melanin in cells, reduce the damage to cell DNA caused by UV, prevent lipid peroxidation, and slow skin aging.

Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine

Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenyl Methoxyphenyl Triazine, an oil-soluble powder, readily solubilizes in commonly used polar oils. Its effectiveness at low use concentrations can significantly improve the SPF and photostability of sunscreen formulations, providing a sense of security. This broad-spectrum UV absorber, capable of absorbing both UVA and UVB rays, ensures comprehensive protection in sunscreens, day care products, and skin lightening products, further enhancing the feeling of security.

Caprylhydroxamic Acid

Caprylhydroxamic Acid (CHA) is a safe preservative that, when compounded with dihydric alcohols (such as Phenoxyethanol, Phenethyl alcohol, 1,2-octanediol, monoglyceryl octoate, Ethylhexylglycerin, and others), becomes an effective antibacterial agent. It can be used in emulsion systems, no-water formulas, and surfactant washing systems, such as creams, emulsions, body washes, shampoos, makeup, and more. After dissolving in the dihydric alcohol, propylene glycol or glycerin can be added at normal or high temperatures, or it can be added after the system is emulsified when making an O/W emulsion or cream. The usable range of pH is 2-8; the activity is reduced with the increase in pH value.

Capryloyl Glycine

Caprylyl Glycol is a mild cosmetic active ingredient that reduces sebaceous gland secretion and improves the greasiness of oily skin/hair. This ingredient also possesses broad-spectrum antibacterial properties, effectively regulating the scalp's microbiome balance by inhibiting the proliferation of microorganisms such as Malassezia. In formulation design, it is often combined with pyrrolidone carboxylic acid ethylenediamine salt. This synergistic mechanism enhances anti-dandruff efficacy while maintaining product mildness. Widely used in oil-control cleansers, anti-dandruff shampoos, and similar products, it delivers an efficient and safe care experience for consumers.
