Isoceteth-20
Ingredient Info
Isoceteth-20 is a gentle, plant-derived emulsifier and surfactant that helps blend water and oil-based ingredients in skincare formulas. It's commonly used in creams and lotions to create a stable, smooth texture that absorbs easily into skin.
Benefits
- Helps stabilize skincare formulas
- Improves texture and spreadability
- Supports delivery of active ingredients into skin layers
Science: Research shows isoceteth-20 effectively helps deliver antioxidant compounds (like idebenone) into the upper layers of skin without causing permeation beyond the epidermis, making it a safe choice for targeting skincare actives where they're needed. It is classified as a non-ionic emulsifier with a well-established safety profile in cosmetics.
