Polysorbate 60

Description

Harness the dependable blending power of Polysorbate 60, the non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer made from sugar-derived sorbitan stearate, for your Build-Your-Own ORY^® skincare, haircare, bath and liquid soap, and cosmetics. With a high HLB (~14.9), it holds oil droplets in water, disperses essential oils and oil-soluble actives into water-based products, and forms the water-loving half of Emulsifying Wax NF. It is the classic co-emulsifier for glyceryl stearate in creams and a go-to solubilizer for adding fragrance or botanical oils to toners, mists, bath salts, and liquid soaps; the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Panel has found polysorbates safe as used. In your custom cream, lotion, toner, face mist, or gel, it gives every skin type a stable, smooth texture and evenly blended botanicals. In your scalp toner, refresh spray, or hair cream, it carries rosemary or tea tree evenly through water. In your bath salts, bath oil, or liquid soap, it keeps oils dispersed and tubs non-slippery. In your cosmetics, it supports foundations, micellar waters, and setting sprays. PEG-free alternatives are available on request. Customize your cruelty-free formulation for smooth, stable, beautifully blended products. Caution: PEG-type ingredient — not for COSMOS/natural-certified formulas. Not for cold-process soap. Patch test before first use.
