About C10-16 Pareth-1

C10-16 Pareth-1 is an individual ingredient used in cosmetics.[1] The number 1 at the end of the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added. It changes the balance between water-attracting and oil-attracting parts, resulting in differences in cleansing power, emulsifying ability, and sensory feel. In cosmetics, it is used to help sebum and impurities wash away with water, reduce friction on the skin or hair and add a smooth feel, and lower surface tension so ingredients wet, mix, and spread evenly.[1]
