Cosmetic-grade disodium EDTA powder (100g) for improving the stability of DIY skincare and haircare formulations.
How It Works
Disodium EDTA is a chelating agent. It binds metal ions, such as those found in hard water, that would otherwise speed up oxidation, cause discolouration or weaken preservatives. By locking them away, it helps a formula stay stable.
Key Benefits
- Helps prevent discolouration and spoilage caused by metal ions
- Helps preservatives work more effectively
- Effective at very low levels, so 100g lasts a long time
- Dissolves easily in water
Ingredients
Disodium EDTA (INCI). Single ingredient.
