Butylene Glycol
Common Name(s): 1,3-butanediol,bg,1,3-butylene glycol
CAS Number: 107-88-0
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides humectant hydration and active ingredient solubilization with excellent skin feel.
Why It's Used: Preferred glycol humectant in premium and k-beauty formulations for superior skin feel vs propylene glycol with equivalent functionality.
How It Works: Two hydroxyl groups at 1,3-positions provide water binding and solvent activity. better tolerated than propylene glycol with minimal sensitization risk. 4-carbon backbone provides slightly greater hydrophobic character enabling dissolution of less polar actives vs pg.
Typically Found In: Toners,essences,serums,k-beauty formulas
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ glycol humectant
Secondary Functions: Tewl reduction,skin plumping
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 1%โ10%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ synthetic
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Synthetic or naturally derived. excellent aqueous solubility.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 โ non-comedogenic
Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating; suitable for all skin types.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Ceramides,emollients,occlusives,glycerin,hyaluronic acid
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
K-beauty's preference for butylene glycol over propylene glycol is driven by two factors: bg's superior skin feel (less tacky than pg's higher viscosity) and its lower sensitization potential (1,3-bg has better spatial distribution of hydroxyl groups that reduces protein interaction vs pg's 1,2-position oh groups).

Diethylhexyl Adipate
Common Name(s): Diethylhexyl adipate,emollient ester,spreading skin conditioner
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides skin-softening emolliency with specific spreading value determined by the acid-alcohol ester components โ delivering a reproducible sensory profile for targeted skin care and colour cosmetic texture outcomes.
Why It's Used: Synthetic emollient esters enable formulation precision unavailable from natural oils โ spreading value, viscosity, and polarity precisely engineered through acid-alcohol selection for targeted sensory outcomes consistently batch to batch.
How It Works: Ester physicochemistry: acid chain length and branching determines lipophilicity (logp); alcohol type determines viscosity and spreading rate. low-polarity esters (diethylhexyl adipate, logp 6.5) provide fast-spreading dry feel; medium-polarity (isopropyl myristate, logp 7) moderate spreading; high-polarity (peg esters) provide water-compatible emolliency. the ester c=o provides polar adhesion to skin surface while alkyl chains provide lipophilic lubrication.
Typically Found In: Skin care,colour cosmetics,emollient bases
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ emollient
Secondary Functions: Barrier sealing,softening
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 1%โ30%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Conditional
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Plant-derived, synthetic or animal-derived. verify source.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 1/5 โ low; formulation-dependent
Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Humectants,ceramides,actives as carrier
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Non-phthalate ester selection is essential โ dibutyl phthalate (dbp), dehp, and dinp are restricted/prohibited in eu and california cosmetics. non-phthalate alternatives (adipates, sebacates, citrates) provide equivalent spreading and compatibility without the endocrine disruption concerns.

Glyceryl Stearate
Common Name(s): Glycerol monostearate,gms,glycerin monostearate
CAS Number: 31566-31-1
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides o/w emulsification with emolliency and skin feel improvement from a natural glycerol ester.
Why It's Used: Standard cosmetic monoglyceride emulsifier โ widely used for o/w cream formation with clean, natural-origin credentials and good sensory profile.
How It Works: Monoglyceride structure (one fatty acid + glycerol) provides amphiphilic hlb ~3-4 for o/w emulsification when combined with higher hlb co-emulsifiers. forms alpha-gel lamellar structure with water for emulsion stabilization. direct skin conditioning via fatty acid film.
Typically Found In: Creams,lotions,moisturizers โ standard in o/w emulsions
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ monoglyceride emulsifier
Secondary Functions: Barrier sealing,softening
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 1%โ10%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ from vegetable glycerol and stearic acid
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Plant-derived, synthetic or animal-derived. verify source.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 1/5 โ low; formulation-dependent
Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Humectants,ceramides,actives as carrier
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Glyceryl stearate's alpha-gel lamellar phase formation (distinguishable by x-ray crystallography from beta crystalline phase) provides superior emulsion stability compared to its beta crystalline form. the alpha-gel phase creates a viscoelastic network that resists droplet coalescence โ the fundamental mechanism behind gms's long use as a reliable primary emulsifier.
