Cetamix™ 20 (Cetearth 20)
Cetamix™ 20 (Ceteareth 20) is a versatile emulsifying agent widely used in the personal care and cosmetics industry. This ingredient excels in stabilizing oil-in-water emulsions, ensuring that creams, lotions, and other cosmetic products maintain a uniform consistency and appearance. It also enhances the absorption of products into the skin, providing a smoother application and leaving the skin feeling non-greasy. It is particularly beneficial in formulating skin care products aimed at delivering active ingredients effectively. Moreover, it acts as a solubilizer, helping to incorporate oil-soluble substances into aqueous solutions, making it essential for creating clear serums and gels. Its mild nature also makes it suitable for use in formulations intended for sensitive skin, contributing to its popularity in a wide range of beauty and health products.
