PEG-180M

Ingredient type: EMULSIFIER/TEXTURE

✨ Role: PEG-180M is mainly used as a thickener and film-forming agent in cosmetic products. It helps provide a smooth, homogenous texture to formulations and can increase product viscosity, improving application and feel on the skin.

Ingredient type: Emulsifier

‍⚕️ Safety: This ingredient is generally considered safe in the typical concentrations used in cosmetic care. However, as with all products containing PEGs, it is important that they are free from harmful impurities.

✨ Vegan: Yes, this ingredient is generally synthetic and does not contain any animal products.

✨ Please note: Although PEG-180M is considered safe, it is important to ensure that products containing PEG ingredients have been sufficiently purified to avoid the presence of potentially irritating ethoxylated by-products. People with particularly sensitive or reactive skin may experience irritation, although this is rare.

Present in: moisturizers, lotions, hair products, styling gels, and some make-up products.
