Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate
Ingredient Info
Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate is a plant-derived emulsifier that helps blend oil and water-based ingredients together in skincare products. It's commonly used to create stable creams, gels, and lightweight formulations, and can help oils dissolve better in products.
Benefits
- Stabilizes oil and water mixtures in formulations
- Plant-derived emulsifier
- Helps deliver oil-soluble actives (like antioxidants) more effectively in skincare products
Science: Research demonstrates that polyglyceryl-3 diisostearate is effective at solubilizing polar antioxidants in vegetable oils through reverse micelle formation, and has been successfully used in stable nanoemulgel formulations with good skin cell compatibility and stability.
