Butylene Glycol (Butylene Glycol) is a versatile chemical compound recognized for its multifunctional properties in cosmetic formulations. Often known as 1,3-Butanediol, this ingredient serves primarily as a humectant, effectively helping the skin retain moisture for enhanced hydration. Additionally, it functions as a solubilizer, enabling other substances, including oils, to dissolve more readily in water, thereby improving the overall product performance. Commonly incorporated into various cosmetics, Butylene Glycol also acts as a penetration enhancer and a slip agent, making it an essential component for delivering active ingredients and achieving a smooth application experience.
