About Steareth-12 Stearate

Steareth-12 Stearate is an ester of Steareth-12 and stearic acid.[1] The number 12 at the end of the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. It changes the balance between water-loving and oil-loving portions, which can affect cleansing power, emulsifying ability, and sensory feel. In cosmetics, it is used to leave the skin's surface feeling soft and smooth.[2]
