Optiphen Plus

Optiphen Plus (Phenoxyethanol (and) Caprylyl Glycol (and) Sorbic Acid) is a highly effective preservative specifically formulated to meet the demands of paraben and formaldehyde-free personal care products. Developed as part of the Optiphen family, this preservative shines in formulations with a pH below 6.0, while also demonstrating efficacy in products with higher pH levels. Ideal for a wide range of cosmetic applications, Optiphen Plus is recommended at concentrations between 0.75% and 1.5%, though a lower dosage of 0.5% may suffice for simpler surfactant-based products. Due to its performance being influenced by the overall product matrix, conducting a preservation test is essential to determine the optimal dose for your specific formulation, ensuring safety and effectiveness in your creations.
