Structure | |
Description | Ceteareth-20 is a fatty alcohol ethoxylate that is commonly used in cosmetics and personal care products as an emulsifier, surfactant, and stabilizer. It is often combined with other emulsifiers to improve the texture and consistency of formulations, and can help ingredients mix evenly and stay blended. Ceteareth-20 is used in a wide range of products, including creams, lotions, shampoos, and conditioners. It is considered safe for use in cosmetics at concentrations of up to 25%, and has been shown to have minimal risk of irritation or sensitization. In addition to its emulsifying and surfactant properties, Ceteareth-20 can also help to improve the penetration of active ingredients into the skin. This makes it a popular ingredient in anti-aging and skin care products, as it can help to enhance the efficacy of other active ingredients. |
