EHG

INCI: Ethylhexylglycerin

Iscaguard EHG is a multifunctional additive that has historically been used as an emollient and skin conditioning agent. Its preservative boosting effects have led to a rise in its popularity, particularly in deodorising and sensitive skin applications. Although as a stand-alone additive Iscaguard EHG has low activity against microbial growth, combination with active biocides has been proven to increase their efficacy, thereby allowing lower preservative concentrations for safer, gentler formulations.
