FunctionSurfactant

What it is — PPG-13-Decyltetradeceth-24 (INCI: PPG-13-Decyltetradeceth-24) is an ethoxylated emulsifier and solubiliser used to blend oil and water phases.

What it does — It helps disperse oils and keep emulsions stable, contributing to a smooth, uniform texture in serums and lotions.

Typical use — It appears in serums, lotions and emulsions, usually as part of the base rather than as an active.

Who it suits / good to know — Non-active and generally inert on skin. As an ethoxylated ingredient, it belongs to a class where trace 1,4-dioxane can be a manufacturing consideration; reputable suppliers control for this.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it mid risk: an ethoxylated surfactant with a potential trace 1,4-dioxane consideration. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.

Why we grade it Mid: Mid risk - ethoxylated surfactant (potential trace 1,4-dioxane concern).
