Description
Iscaguard HOD is a multifunctional ingredient for use in cosmetic preparations. It is a blend of glycolic emollients which are used to improve the skin and hair conditioning properties of a formulation. By minimizing water loss from the skin, Iscaguard HOD imparts a soft, silky feel to end products. Additionally, due to its intrinsic antimicrobial properties, it can be used to create “self preserving” formulations.
