Ingredients For Cleansers Manufacturers

Preservation for facial washes shower gels and wet wipes. Cleansers and wet wipes carry the highest microbial risk in personal care because water, air and repeated consumer contact meet in the same pack. Phenoxyethanol is the standard answer, and 1,2-hexanediol doubles as a solubiliser and mild preservative in facial washes and shower gels.
