HYDROGENATED TALLOWETH-12.

Insufficient Data / LIGHT STABILIZER, SURFACTANT - CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - EMULSIFYING, VISCOSITY CONTROLLING

HYDROGENATED TALLOWETH-12 is a multifunctional ingredient primarily recognized for its role as a surfactant and emulsifier in skincare formulations. It facilitates the uniform blending of oil and water phases, contributing to product stability and texture. Additionally, it may offer skin conditioning and viscosity-controlling benefits.

Science

Mechanism of Action

As an ethoxylated nonionic surfactant, HYDROGENATED TALLOWETH-12 operates by reducing the interfacial tension between immiscible liquids, thereby creating and stabilizing emulsions to ensure homogeneous distribution of ingredients. Its structure also allows it to potentially impart skin conditioning properties, enhancing the feel and suppleness of the skin, and to modulate the viscosity of formulations, influencing product consistency.

Safety Profile

CIR Status
Not reviewed
Sensitization risk Unknown

While HYDROGENATED TALLOWETH-12 lacks a dedicated safety review by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel, the panel has evaluated related components such as Hydrogenated Lard and Hydrogenated Tallow, deeming them safe for cosmetic use when heavy metal and pesticide contamination limits are rigorously observed. For ethoxylated compounds generally, potential impurities like 1,4-dioxane are a common safety consideration.
