About PEG-40
PEG-40 is a polymer of ethylene oxide.[1] The number 40 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added. With the same base structure, changes in this number may 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 hydration, and to dissolve other ingredients to create a uniform formula.[2]
