A mild preservative built for sensitive formulas
Every product that contains water needs protecting, and potassium sorbate is one of the softer ways to do it. It works mainly against mold and yeast, so formulators pair it with a second preservative that covers bacteria. The combination lets a brand skip harsher single-agent systems without shortening shelf life.
Revision Skincare relies on it across most of the line, from Soothing Facial Rinse and Revox Line Relaxer to Nectifirm, DEJ Face Cream and Intellishade Clear SPF 50.
Is potassium sorbate irritating to sensitive skin?
Rarely. It is used at well under one percent and has a long record of good tolerance, which is why you see it in rinse-off cleansers and leave-on treatments alike. Anyone with a known sorbate sensitivity should still read the full ingredient list.
