The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) has not conducted a specific safety assessment for DIHYDROXYPROPYL PG-GLUCOSIDE. While general 'alkyl glucosides' were reviewed and deemed safe when formulated to be non-irritating, this specific derivative was not explicitly named or evaluated in the available abstract, suggesting a lack of direct safety data.

Verdict

Insufficient Data

While DIHYDROXYPROPYL PG-GLUCOSIDE demonstrates clear humectant and skin conditioning capabilities, a significant lack of specific clinical efficacy data, CIR safety review, and formulation parameters necessitates further independent investigation for definitive assessment.
