PEG-7M

Safety grade: A

PEG-7M is a thick, gel-like substance made from polyethylene glycol that helps bind ingredients together and thicken cosmetic products. It's commonly used in creams, lotions, and gels to create a smooth, stable texture.

This ingredient thickens products, helps keep oil and water mixed together, and binds components so the formula stays smooth and consistent without separating.
