About PEG-220

PEG-220 is a polymer of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 220 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. In the same base structure, changing this number may affect water miscibility and the formulation’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to help ingredients in a formulation bind together and maintain its shape, attract water to the formulation and skin surface to help maintain moisturization, and dissolve other raw materials to create a uniform formulation.[2]
