Description:

BHT, also known as butylated hydroxytoluene, is a synthetic antioxidant commonly used in various industries, including skincare and beauty products. It is primarily used as a preservative to extend the shelf life of cosmetic formulations and prevent oxidation, thereby maintaining the product's quality and stability over time.

Benefits:

  • Antioxidant properties: BHT acts as an antioxidant by inhibiting the oxidation process, which helps prevent the degradation of cosmetic formulations due to exposure to air, light, and heat.
  • Shelf life extension: By preventing oxidation, BHT helps extend the shelf life of skincare and beauty products, ensuring they remain effective and safe for use over an extended period.
  • Preservation: BHT's antimicrobial properties help inhibit the growth of microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi, reducing the risk of product contamination and spoilage.

Usage: BHT is typically added during the formulation process of skincare and beauty products. It is commonly used in oil-based products, such as creams, lotions, serums, and lip balms, to prevent rancidity and maintain their stability.

Recommended Usage:

Add to fat phase, typical usage 0.8%, best used in combination with EDTA ,The recommended usage level of BHT may vary depending on the specific formulation and regulatory guidelines.

Solubility: BHT is soluble in oils and fats, making it suitable for use in oil-based formulations. It is less soluble in water, so it may require appropriate emulsifiers or solubilizers to incorporate it into water-based products.

Applications:

  • Creams, lotions, and moisturizers
  • Serums and facial oils
  • Lip balms and lip care products
  • Makeup products (such as foundations and concealers)
  • Hair care products (such as leave-in treatments and serums)
  • Sunscreen and sun care products

Storage: To ensure the stability and effectiveness of BHT, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It is essential to keep the container tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption.
