About PEG-3 Stearate
PEG-3 Stearate is the polyethylene glycol ester of stearic acid.[1] The number 3 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units; within the same basic structure, changing this number may also affect water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to attract moisture to the formula and skin surface and help maintain a moisturized feel.[2]
