About C11-21 Pareth-3

C11-21 Pareth-3 is an individual ingredient used in cosmetics.[1] The number 3 at the end of the name refers to the average number of added ethylene oxide units. It changes the balance between the water-attracting portion and the fat-attracting portion, resulting in differences in cleansing power, emulsifying ability, and feel. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly mixed and to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[1]
