What’s the downside of hydroxyacetophenone?
https://cir-safety.org/sites/default/files/hydace032021SLR.pdf
Low irritation. Food additive. Natural claim. Preservative-free claim. High pKa. Not expensive. Big companies are using it more and more, effectiviness being verified. Can act as skin-conditioning agent and antioxidant…If something seems too good to be true, it probably is. What’s the downside of it? Why weren’t it rediscovered until recent years? -

It is not cold processable.
It is not inexpensive. Price is 7x more that phenoxyethanol and 2x more than Paraben.I think it will be very popular in the future.

I have been using it since almost the beginning….and it is in all formulas. I view it as a preservative booster. Since I do not use parabens or F releasers…I figured I would enhance my E9010 multiple other ways, Symsave H being one of them.

One downside is that it has a smell but it’s not unpleasant
