PPG-9 ETHYLHEXETH-5

Safety grade: A

This is a synthetic ingredient made from petroleum-derived components that acts like a tiny bridge between oil and water. It helps these two substances blend together smoothly in cosmetic products instead of separating.

It works as an emulsifier and surfactant to blend oil and water-based ingredients together and help the product spread smoothly on skin while maintaining a stable, uniform texture.
