Polysorbate 80, derived from sweet fruits such as apples, pears, peaches, and prunes, is a surfactant commonly used in cosmetics and personal care.
• Polysorbate 80 is used to equally distribute oils in shampoos, conditioners, face washes, lipsticks, and other products, preventing them from separating.
• It works by weakening the surface's water tension, which allows dirt and oil to be lifted.
Benefits and uses:
