About Ceteareth-2
Ceteareth-2 is the polyethylene glycol ether of cetearyl alcohol.[1] The number 2 at the end of the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. It changes the balance between water-loving and oil-loving portions, resulting in differences in cleansing power, emulsifying ability, and sensory feel. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsions in which water and oil are evenly mixed and to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
