What is it?
Hydroxyacetophenone is a multifunctional ingredient used in skincare as an antioxidant, soothing agent, and preservative booster. It protects formulations and the skin from oxidative factors while contributing to the stability and performance of other ingredients.
Where does it come from?
It is lab-produced and inspired by natural phenolic compounds found in certain plants. Its structure allows it to function similarly to naturally occurring antioxidants, providing protection and calming benefits in a highly stable and consistent form.
