About Hydroquinone

Hydroquinone is an individual ingredient used in cosmetics.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to help keep a formula’s condition and properties from changing easily during storage.[1] In Europe, it may be used at up to 0.02% in artificial nail products that are mixed immediately before use.[2] It is described as crystalline, so when it is in solid form, dissolving or evenly dispersing it first is important to prevent clumping in the formula.[3]
