PEG-150 Pentaerythrityl Tetrastearate

PEG-150 Pentaerythrityl Tetrastearate is a synthetic polymer used as a thickener and emulsifier in skincare and personal care products. It helps increase the viscosity of formulations while keeping oil and water evenly mixed, creating stable creams, lotions, and cleansers. It is particularly common in facial cleansers and body washes, where it contributes to a richer texture and improves foam quality without significantly affecting the skin. It is valued primarily for improving formulation stability and product feel rather than providing direct skincare benefits.
