About Maltol

Maltol is an organic compound.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to keep the characteristic odor or taste of an ingredient from being overly prominent and to leave skin or hair feeling fresh and well-conditioned.[3] It is described as a white crystalline powder, so when used as a solid, it is important to dissolve or disperse it evenly first to prevent clumping in the formulation.[2]
