Benzyl Alcohol

Preservative component

BENZYL ALCOHOL

Benzyl alcohol is an aromatic alcohol that occurs naturally in certain essential oils, including jasmine and ylang-ylang, and is also synthetically produced for cosmetic use. In skincare formulations, it functions primarily as a preservative component and solvent. It helps inhibit the growth of bacteria, yeast, and mold, contributing to product safety and stability.

At regulated concentrations, benzyl alcohol is considered safe for cosmetic use and is approved globally as a preservative ingredient.
