About Wheat Germ Oil PEG-8 Esters
Wheat Germ Oil PEG-8 Esters is an oil primarily composed of oil-soluble components.[1] The number 8 indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units; with the same base structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction and add a smooth feel to skin or hair, to create emulsions in which water and oil are evenly mixed, and to leave the skin’s surface feeling soft and smooth.[1] It is also used to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[1]
