PEG-8 LAURATE

Ingredient type: EMULSIFIER/TEXTURE

✨ Role: PEG-8 Laurate is used in cosmetic formulations to help stabilize and blend ingredients that would not naturally combine, such as water and oil. It also offers emollient properties that help soften the skin.

Ingredient type: Emulsifier

‍⚕️ Safety: This ingredient is generally considered safe for cosmetic use at typical concentrations. However, as with any PEG derivative, it is important to ensure that it is not contaminated with harmful impurities from the manufacturing process.

✨ Vegan: Yes, this ingredient is synthetic and therefore suitable for vegan formulations.

✨ Note: PEG-8 Laurate is generally well tolerated by most skin types, but individuals with particularly sensitive or reactive skin should always perform a patch test before regular use.

Found in: Creams, lotions, facial cleansers, and other emulsified products where texture and stability are important.
