FunctionMineral
What it is — Potassium Chloride (INCI: Potassium Chloride) is a mineral salt used mainly to adjust texture.
What it does — It is commonly used to fine-tune viscosity in gel and hydrogel textures, helping a formula reach the right consistency.
Typical use — Found in gels, hydrogels, essences and some emulsions, usually at low levels.
Who it suits / good to know — Broadly compatible; it is a texture and stability aid rather than a performance ingredient, so there is little for the skin to react to.
Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk in its EWG-style, ingredient-by-ingredient review, reflecting an inert mineral salt. This is general information, not medical advice.
Why we grade it Low: Low risk — inert mineral salt.
