PEG-115M
Safety grade: A
This is a thick, gel-like polymer made in the laboratory that acts like a binder and thickener in cosmetic products. It helps hold ingredients together and keeps formulas stable and smooth.
PEG-115M thickens products, stabilizes emulsions (preventing oils and water from separating), and binds ingredients together to create the desired texture and consistency.
