PEG-16 DILAURATE
Safety grade: A
This is a man-made ingredient that helps mix oil and water together in cosmetic products. It acts like a bridge between ingredients that normally don't want to blend, keeping them evenly distributed throughout the product.
PEG-16 Dilaurate works as an emulsifier to stabilize cosmetic formulations by keeping oil and water-based ingredients from separating, creating a smooth, uniform product texture.
