Low risk

FunctionEmulsifier

What it is — Polyglyceryl-4 Diisostearate/Polyhydroxystearate/Sebacate (INCI: Polyglyceryl-4 Diisostearate/Polyhydroxystearate/Sebacate) is a polyglycerin-based emulsifier, often used for water-in-oil systems.

What it does — It is commonly used to blend oil and water into a stable formula, especially richer or oil-continuous textures.

Typical use — It appears in creams, balms, sunscreens and makeup, where it keeps the phases evenly combined.

Who it suits / good to know — Present at supporting levels rather than as an active, and generally low-irritation. It shapes stability and feel rather than delivering a skincare effect.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk in its EWG-style, ingredient-by-ingredient review. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.
