Description
PPG-1 Trideceth-6 is a synthetic non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer that helps evenly mix oils, fragrances, and active ingredients with the water phase. It is used in cosmetics to create stable emulsions, reduce the greasiness of textures, and as a delivery system for actives (such as in encapsulated formulas). It is most commonly found in the ingredients of lotions, serums, deodorants, micellar waters, and sunscreens. It has a light, non-comedogenic texture, but in some cases, it may irritate sensitive skin.
