PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil
A solubilizer that dissolves small amounts of oil or fragrance into water-based formulas, keeping clear products clear.
What it does
PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil is a solubilizer made from castor oil. Its main job is dissolving oils, fragrances, and some actives into watery formulas so the result stays clear and uniform rather than separating. It is common in toners, micellar waters, and lightweight serums as a behind-the-scenes helper.
