# Laboratory analysis of Ethylhexylglycerine (CAS n° 70445-33-9)

## Your needs: dosage or analysis of ethylhexylglycerine in your cosmetic products

### What is ethylhexylglycerine?

Made from glycerine, Ethylhexylglycerine is a clear, colourless, odourless liquid with a bacteriostatic and moisturising effect. Its use reduces the dosage of traditional [preservatives](https://filab.fr/en/sectors-of-activity/laboratory-analysis-cosmetics/laboratory-analysis-preservatives-cosmetic.md) in skincare products.

It is used in skincare products as a conditioning agent and preservative. It belongs to the category of alkyl glyceryl ethers. It is a glycerine attached to an alkyl with an ether bond.

### What do the regulations say?

The use of ethylhexylglycerine in cosmetic products is regulated by EC Regulation 1223/2009, which lays down the general rules for the manufacture of [cosmetic products](https://filab.fr/en/sectors-of-activity/laboratory-analysis-cosmetics.md): drawing up a report on the safety of each cosmetic product, product registration, [use of nanomaterials](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-expertise-services/laboratory-analysis-nanomaterial/laboratory-analysis-nanomaterials-cosmetics.md), list of banned or restricted substances.
