INCI: 1,2-Hexanediol - Also known as: Hexylene Glycol, Octylene Glycol Precursor

A NOTE ON NAMING

1,2-Hexanediol and Hexylene Glycol are two accepted INCI names for the same compound. In Sweet Chemistry's Barrier Repairing Hydra-Serum, the ingredient is listed as Hexylene Glycol. In the Elasticity Reinforcing Hydra-Cream and Elasticity Reinforcing Lipid-Cream, the same compound appears as 1,2-Hexanediol. The difference is a naming convention, not a formulation difference.

For the full ingredient profile - including what it is, what it does for skin, its co-preservative and solvent functions, and its role within Sweet Chemistry's glycol system - please refer to the Hexylene Glycol page.
