FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Everything Everywhere: Hydrogenated Castor Oil can play a number of different roles in cosmetics and beauty formulations. It can function as an emollient, a cleaning agent, or a solubilizer in perfumes. 

Emulsion Made Easy: PEG 40 (Hydrogenated Castor Oil) Raw Material is a surfactant, meaning it reduces the surface tension between various liquids or between liquids and solids, so they’re easier to mix together. This makes it a popular addition to face and body cleansers used for adding moisture to skin while washing away dirt and excess oil. 

Coats the Complexion:  As an occlusive agent, PEG 40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil coats the skin with a protective layer of moisture, preventing the loss of natural moisture. 

Beauty in the Bubbles: Dual soothing and foam-boosting abilities makes Hydrogenated Castor Oil a valuable addition to all types of beauty care, from cleansers to conditioners. 


DESCRIPTION

As a solubilizer, emulsifier, and surfactant in all kinds of cosmetics, PEG 40 (Hydrogenated Castor Oil) knows how to keep busy. Available in semi-solid or liquid raw material, this vegetable-based solubilizer is also used as a surfactant and cleanser in cosmetic preparations and was designed for use as an emulsifier in aqueous formulations containing a large water phase. It has a yellow color with a mild odor. PEG 40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil is vegan-friendly and cruelty free.


DIRECTIONS & SUGGESTED USAGE

PEG 40 Castor Oil is suggested for use as the primary, if not sole, solubilizing agent or emulsifier in cosmetic applications such as sprays, serums, lotions, and oil-free creams. It is added to oils in the oil phase for its stronger solubilizing qualities. Recommended usage rate is 1-5%.
