Dehydroacetic Acid is a white to off-white crystalline powder widely used as a preservative in cosmetic and personal care products. It is valued for its broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties, which help prevent the growth of bacteria, mold, and yeast, thereby extending the shelf life of products. Dehydroacetic Acid is particularly effective in preserving formulations with a high water content, such as creams, lotions, shampoos, and other aqueous-based products.

In addition to its preservative function, Dehydroacetic Acid is known for its gentle nature, making it suitable for use in products intended for sensitive skin. It is often used in combination with other preservatives, like benzyl alcohol, to enhance its effectiveness and provide broad protection against microbial contamination. Dehydroacetic Acid is approved for use in various countries and is considered safe when used within the recommended concentrations, which are typically low to minimize the potential for irritation. Its versatility and safety profile make it a popular choice for natural and organic formulations where more traditional preservatives might not be desired.

Please Note:

While some of our stock products can be customized with scents, additives, etc., at-home customization should be done at your own risk. We are not liable for formulas that break as a result of customer alterations. Altering cosmetic products is a complex and variable process, and there is not a one size fits all method for the customization of any formula. We encourage you to experiment in small test batches, do outside research before attempting to customize a product, and have your customized product tested at a third party lab to ensure preservation efficacy.
