⚕️ Safety: Generally considered safe when used in accordance with good manufacturing practices. However, as with all PEG (polyethylene glycol) derived ingredients, it may contain potentially irritating impurities if not properly purified.
✨ Vegan: Yes, this ingredient is generally considered vegan because it is synthesized from petrochemical raw materials.
✨ Worth knowing: Although generally well tolerated, products containing PEGs may not be suitable for extremely sensitive or irritated skin. In addition, PEG ingredients have sometimes come under scrutiny due to the possible residues of ethylene oxide and dioxanes they may contain.
