About PEG-12
PEG-12 is a polymer of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 12 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. With the same base structure, changes in this number can affect water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to attract moisture to the formula and skin surface to help maintain hydration, and to dissolve other ingredients to create a uniform formula.[2]
