Butylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:

  • It is a solvent, meaning that it helps to dissolve other ingredients. This also enhances the absorption of the product into one's skin.
  • It is a humectant, which means that it helps attract moisture into the skin.
  • It helps improve product application.

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient. It is unlikely to irritate skin, and works well with pretty much all other ingredients.

acne-prone/oily skin: beware!
amazing moisturizing sunscreen for those with combination or dry skin. oily, acne prone, or sensitive skin should go for another product. i've been using this product for a while now, and i think its the source of my breakouts. I was using waaaay too many products when I started using this, but now I've eliminated most of them, I'm 98% sure this is giving me pimples. when i reapply during the day, ive been developing new spots
