Question
For a spray formula that should feel dry and cool, which ingredient should I choose between Ethyl Alcohol and Ethoxydiglycol?
Answer
Based on the staff's advice:
1. For a spray formula that you want to feel dry and cool, Ethyl Alcohol is recommended over Ethoxydiglycol. However, you can also use a combination of both.
2. The percentages you mentioned, Ethyl Alcohol at 20% or Ethoxydiglycol at 5%, are suitable. The staff also suggested a combination of Ethyl Alcohol 20% and Ethoxydiglycol 5% as an option.
