Description
This multifunctional ingredient serves as both a preservative and skin conditioner in cosmetic formulations. It helps extend product shelf life by preventing microbial growth while simultaneously providing moisturizing benefits that leave skin feeling soft and smooth. While generally well-tolerated, it may cause mild irritation in some sensitive individuals, so patch testing is recommended for those with reactive skin.
