description Product Description
2-Ethylhexyl 4-Hydroxybenzoate is widely used as a preservative in cosmetics and personal care products. It helps prevent the growth of bacteria, fungi, and yeast, extending the shelf life of products like creams, lotions, and makeup. Its oil-soluble nature makes it suitable for use in formulations containing fats or oils. Additionally, it is employed in some pharmaceuticals to maintain the stability and safety of topical medications. Its effectiveness at low concentrations makes it a popular choice for preserving a wide range of products while minimizing potential irritation to the skin.
