About Eugenol

Eugenol is a substituted phenol.[1] Its physical properties and feel in a finished product may vary depending on the concentration, the other ingredients used with it, the formulation's acidity, and manufacturing conditions. In cosmetics, it is used to alter the taste or smell of raw materials to make them difficult to ingest, to add fragrance to products or adjust the characteristic odor of raw materials, and to leave the skin or hair feeling fresh.[2]
