Propylparaben

Propylparaben, the n-propyl ester of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, occurs as a natural substance found in many plants and some insects, although it is manufactured synthetically for use in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and foods.

It is a preservative typically found in many water-based cosmetics, such as creams, lotions, shampoos and bath products. Sodium propyl p-hydroxybenzoate, the sodium salt of propylparaben, is also used similarly as a food additive and as an anti-fungal preservation agent.
