INOLEX’s Lexgard® O is multi-functional emollient, moisturizer, and wetting agent that can also boost or aid the preservation of cosmetic formulations. It can be used as an alternative to parabens or other preservatives, and can also be used alone or in combination with certain ingredients to achieve completely preservative-free claims. Lexgard O melts at approximately 30 to 35 degrees Celsius and contributes a smooth, dry sensory characteristic to topical skin care products.
