Description

A mixture of complex esters of fatty acids with oleic acid (usually obtained from olive or rapeseed oil) and an ingredient known as Polyglyceryl-10, which is a polymer of glycerin that acts as a moisturizing ingredient and emulsifier. Polyglyceryl-10 oleate can be synthetic or derived from plants or animals. Polyglyceryl-10 oleate acts as a skin softening emulsifier, but can also act as a cleansing agent.
