About PEG-80
PEG-80 is a polymer of ethylene oxide, with n primarily averaging 80.[1] The number 80 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added; within the same base structure, changing this number may affect water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to help formula ingredients bind together and maintain the formula’s shape, to attract moisture to the formula and skin surface and help maintain hydration, and to dissolve other raw materials and create a uniform formula.[2]
