1,2-hexanediol

A-Leen 6 is a biobased multifunctional ingredient that enhances product protection while acting as a solvent, humectant and emollient. Thanks to its exceptional mildness, A-Leen 6 is suitable for all skin types. Made from 100% RSPO-MB certified palm kernel oil, it offers a sustainable alternative to traditional 1,2-hexanediol. Ideal for both conventional and natural cosmetics.

A-Leen 6 can also be used as an efficient co-solubilizer for lipophilic ingredients, such as perfumes, in water. Using A-Leen 6 reduces the need for conventional solubilizers, thereby enhancing mildness and skin feel.

In colour cosmetics, A-Leen 6 disperses pigments and improves coverage.
