Overview

Typically, polyglyceryl-10 myristatea is a thicker pale yellow paste; this material is classified as an ester that is modified using glycerin. It can be used as an emulsifier, but this is rare. It also is used as a solubilizer for oils, fragrances, and essential oils due to its non-ionic behavior.

Polyglyceryl-10 myristate is considered a PEG-free solubilizer for use in water-based products and is used in higher amounts to obtain a clear product. It has a well-balanced, lightweight skin feel with a perceived moisturizing effect on the skin.
