Polysorbates

Polysorbates are commonly used in personal care products as emulsifiers and solubilizers. They’re derived from sorbitol and fatty acids.
Available types are:
1. Polysorbate 20: Often used in fragrances, essential oils, and vitamins.
2. Polysorbate 60: Used in foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
3. Polysorbate 80: Common in skincare products, hair care, and makeup.

They help:
– Blend oil and water-based ingredients
– Solubilize fragrances and oils
– Improve texture and stability
