Astringent
Tightens and contracts skin tissue, temporarily shrinking pores and reducing oiliness. That "clean, tight" feeling after toner.
Solvent
Dissolves other ingredients so they distribute evenly in the formula. Often the invisible "base" everything else is mixed into.
Viscosity Controlling
Controls excess oil
Minimizes pores
Traditional Use
Another variant in the specially denatured alcohol classification system created in the early 20th century. Designed for cosmetic and pharmaceutical use with specific denaturant formulations to prevent beverage use.
