Phenoxyethanol

Phenoxyethanol, also known as 2-phenoxyethanol, is a chemical that combines phenol and glycol ether. This substance is chemically synthesized and is often used as a preservative in various types of cosmetic products. In particular, it can be found in lotions, creams, body lotions, shampoos, conditioners, but also in deodorants and sunscreens.

Phenoxyethanol can also be found in some medical products such as infusion solutions and vaccines. It has the advantage of being less irritating to human skin and eyes than other preservatives. It also has excellent bactericidal and fungicidal properties. It is involved in inhibiting the growth of microorganisms in products, thus preventing their premature deterioration and extending their shelf life. It is therefore a very popular ingredient for cosmetic manufacturers, and is also affordable. From a consumer point of view, it is important that Phenoxyethanol does not cause any adverse reactions when used in regulated amounts. Its properties have made it an integral part of many cosmetic and health care products.
