Science & Benefits

Methylpropanediol is a multifunctional glycol that acts as a solvent and humectant. It is prized for its ability to enhance the penetration of water-soluble actives, such as Salicylic Acid, allowing them to reach the pore lining more effectively. It leaves a velvety, non-sticky finish. It is zero-comedogenic (Rating 0). It is a superior choice for acne serums, providing the delivery vehicle needed for high-performance actives without the drying effects of traditional alcohols.
