Description

Polyglyceryl-2 Stearate is a soft, biodegradable emulsifier that helps to combine water and oils into a stable emulsion. It creates a smooth, uniform and pleasant texture for creams and lotions. It is highly valued for its gentle action and is suitable even for sensitive and baby skin. In addition to emulsifying, it also has moisturizing properties and can act as a light emollient, softening the skin. It is often used in O/W emulsions, moisturizing creams, serums, sunscreens and baby cosmetics.
