1,2-Hexanediol is a colorless and transparent liquid, which is often used as a moisturizer, solute, etc. in skin care products.
1,2-Hexanediol can combine with moisture in the air to form a molecular membrane, thereby locking in moisture and helping to maintain the moisture balance in the skin. Therefore, it is often added as a moisturizing ingredient in skin care products. If the skin is relatively dry, applying cosmetics containing 1,2-Hexanediol appropriately can help relieve skin tightness and make the skin more moisturized. In addition, since 1,2-Hexanediol also has a certain degree of hygroscopicity, it can also absorb moisture in the air, thereby reducing the loss of moisture on the skin surface.
