Potassium Sorbate
Potassium Sorbate is a mild preservative being used in cosmetic and skin care formulas as a paraben alternative to prevent or retard the growth of microorganisms and protect products from spoiling. Developed from Sorbic Acid, which is naturally found in the berries of the mountain ash tree, Potassium Sorbate is effective against fungi, mold and yeast, but less active against bacteria, and therefore not considered a broad spectrum preservative; it needs to be used in conjunction with other preservatives to ensure formulas are totally protected. It is used in a wide variety of skin care and cosmetic products, including facial, eye and hair care formulas.

Common cosmetics preservative that’s considered one of the least irritating for use in formulations. It does not release formaldehyde

This group evaluated the foundational scientific data plus the newer relevant data, and concluded that phenoxyethanol is safe as a cosmetic ingredient this chemical occurs naturally in green tea.
Further studies and accumulated safety data have shown that phenoxyethanol is practically nontoxic via oral and dermal (skin) In short, phenoxyethanol is considered a safe and effective preservative when used in amounts approved for use in leave-on or rinse-off
Benzyl alcohol
Is a natural ingredient. Many plants, fruits, and teas have it as a component, as do essential oils like jasmine, hyacinth, and ylang-ylang.
