Trusted Broad-Spectrum Preservative for Skincare and Cosmetics

Why Choose Phenoxyethanol?
Effective and Flexible

You’ll find Phenoxyethanol in face creams, scrubs, conditioners, body lotions, and even makeup products. Because it’s nearly odorless and colorless, it won’t interfere with the scent or appearance of your final product.
Easy to Incorporate
Add Phenoxyethanol to the water phase of your formulation. It blends smoothly and helps ensure your product remains stable during its shelf life. Even better, you don’t need to adjust the pH—saving you time during development.
