Harm score: 4 (Slightly harmful chemistry)
C12-C15 Pareth-3, also known as Pareth-25-3, is a frequently used chemical component in the cosmetic industry. It is a synthetic ingredient that is produced from an alcohol series of paraffins. This ingredient acts as an emulsifier, helping in the miscibility of different substances that normally cannot be easily mixed. It is therefore also used as a cleaning agent in the manufacture of cosmetic products.
C12-C15 Pareth-3 contributes its function to create a light and smooth feel on the skin or hair in many cosmetic products. It can be found in many product categories. Some of the most common include shampoos, conditioners, shower gels, body lotions and creams, make-up, as well as cleansing waters and micellar waters. Its properties make it a worthy helper in removing dirt, oil and makeup without over-drying the skin.
