PEG-200 is a clear, thick liquid made from petroleum-derived materials that helps products absorb and retain moisture. It's commonly used in skincare and cosmetic formulations to improve texture and keep products from drying out.

PEG-200 acts as a humectant to draw moisture into the skin and as a solvent to dissolve and blend other ingredients together in cosmetic formulas.
