ls Polysorbate 20 Safe?
According to the scientific data collected by the cosmetic Ingredient Review (clR)Expert Panel,
polysorbate 20 is safe for use in cosmetic and skin care products.Performing the role of emulsifier, theaddition of polysorbate 20 in cosmetic products is also safe for pregnant women.whereas, it is still worthnoting that too much addition of this polyethoxylated sorbitan can possibly lead to skin irritation and itcan cause skin tingling when the cuticle is thin and inflammation occurs.
