Skin-Soothing Agent

4-T-Butylcyclohexanol

4-t-butylcyclohexanol is a synthetic fatty alcohol and TRPV1 (transient receptor potential vanilloid 1) receptor antagonist. It works by intercepting irritation signals — specifically the stinging and burning sensations triggered by environmental or chemical stimuli — before they reach sensory nerve receptors, thereby raising the skin's irritation tolerance threshold. Clinical studies show it can reduce stinging by up to 78% and burning by up to 80% within 3 minutes of application.
