About Methyl Alcohol
Methyl Alcohol is an aliphatic alcohol.[1] The flow and texture of formulations containing Methyl Alcohol may vary depending on the use level, temperature, and the proportions of liquid and solid ingredients used with it. In cosmetics, it is used to alter the taste or odor of raw materials so they are difficult to ingest and to dissolve other raw materials to create a uniform formulation.[3] In Korea, it is classified as an ingredient that cannot be used in cosmetics.[2]
