Propylene Carbonate
A solvent used with clays to help them swell and form a smooth, stable gel.
What it does
Propylene carbonate is a solvent used most often alongside clay thickeners such as bentonite or hectorite. It helps the clay swell and disperse so it forms a smooth, stable gel rather than gritty clumps. It is a processing-and-texture ingredient rather than a skin active.
