Erythritol is sometimes used in skincare and cosmetic products as a moisturizing agent, providing hydration to the skin. Erythritol can also add to oral care products like toothpaste and mouthwash due to its non-cariogenic properties. It does not contribute to tooth decay and can help maintain dental health.

Erythritol can be used as a component in blended sweeteners, which are mixtures of different sweeteners combined to achieve desired taste profiles and properties. Blended sweeteners improved taste, reduced costs, and reduced calorie content.
