DL-1,2-Hexanediol: A Multifunctional Cosmetic Ingredient

DL-1,2-Hexanediol is a clear, colorless liquid diol. It functions as a highly effective and versatile ingredient, primarily within personal care and cosmetic formulations.

Its key role is as a reliable humectant and moisturizer. It actively draws moisture into the upper layers of the skin, helping to maintain hydration and improve skin feel. Therefore, it is a common component in serums, creams, and lotions.

Furthermore, this compound possesses mild yet broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties. Manufacturers use it as a gentle and effective preservative booster. It works synergistically with other preservative systems to inhibit the growth of microbes, thereby extending the shelf life of water-based products without relying solely on traditional, stronger preservatives.

Additionally, DL-1,2-Hexanediol serves as an excellent solvent. It readily dissolves many active cosmetic ingredients and helps enhance the penetration of other compounds in formulations. Its low viscosity and favorable safety profile also make it easy to incorporate into various product types.

In summary, DL-1,2-Hexanediol delivers multiple benefits: hydrating skin, gently preserving formulas, and solvating actives. This combination makes it a valuable and widely adopted workhorse in modern cosmetic science.
