Refreshing agents are lightweight, water-soluble liquids or fine powders. They stimulate thermoreceptors or enhance evaporative cooling, making them ideal for after-sun care, facial mists, and energizing skincare.
Popular INCI ingredients in this segment include Menthol, Menthyl Lactate, and Eucalyptus Extract. Advanced, non-irritating cooling agents with extended wear time are popular. Regulatory considerations include safe concentration levels, particularly for potent cooling agents like menthol.
