Product Description

PEG-75 Shea Butter Glycerides

Product Description

PEG-75 shea butter glycerides is a skin-softening ingredient with mild cleansing and stabilizing properties, derived from shea butter fatty acids and a lightweight polyethylene glycol with humectant qualities.

Partly derived from the hydrating glyceride component of emollient shea butter, PEG-75 Shea Butter Glycerides acts as a lightweight humectant and helps bind ingredients within a formula. It works alongside surfactants to enhance gentle cleansing, leaving the skin feeling soft and supple.

It is sometimes included in cleansing formulas to create a richer texture, with the added benefit of its shea butter components reducing the potential risk of irritation from cleansing agents.

Core Characteristics

Clean Emulsification: Stabilizes oil-in-water systems without synthetic surfactants.
Barrier Support: Delivers shea-derived fatty acids (oleic/stearic acid).
Enhanced Spreadability: Improves texture in lotions & cleansing balms.
Sustainable Choice: RSPO-certified and ECOCERT/COSMOS eligible.
Dual Functionality: Acts as both emulsifier and skin conditioner.
Cold Process Compatible: Simplifies natural formulation.

Benefits

Emulsification
