BUTYLENE GLYCOL
Also known as: Butylene Glycol
CAS Number: 107-88-0
Key Benefits
Lightweight humectant and solvent, enhances penetration of actives
How It Works
1,3-Butanediol acts as a lightweight humectant with penetration-enhancing properties. Disrupts lipid packing in the stratum corneum to improve delivery of active ingredients. Also serves as a solvent for hydrophilic actives.
Why BP Derma Uses It
Butylene Glycol provides efficient hydration without heaviness and actively helps drive other actives deeper into the skin. It is particularly valuable in our mist and serum formulations where penetration efficiency matters most.
