PEG-100 Stearate

Other names: PEG-100 stearate

Harm score: 4 (Slightly harmful chemistry)


PEG-100 Stearate, also known as polyethylene glycol stearate, is a white crystalline substance widely used in the cosmetic industry. This substance is of synthetic origin and is mainly added to cosmetic products because of its extraordinary emulsifying properties. Emulsifiers in products help to combine ingredients that would otherwise not mix with each other, such as water and oil. In addition, PEG-100 Stearate improves the consistency of the products and the seamless spreading on the skin.

PEG-100 Stearate is often used in applications such as body and facial creams, skin lotions, shampoos, conditioners, decorative cosmetics, as well as in hair and skin care. It is also popular in less traditional products such as various skin cleansing solutions, sun creams and make-up removal products. Due to its ability to improve the consistency of products and contribute to better dispersion on the skin, PEG-100 Stearate is a very popular ingredient in many cosmetic products. However, it should be noted that despite its benefits, PEG-100 Stearate is not suitable for people with sensitive skin as it can cause irritation.
