Polyglyceryl-4 Oleate (Polyglyceryl-4 Oleate)

A cosmetic ester derived from polyglycerin and oleic acid, used in formulations as a gentle emulsifier, co-emulsifier and dispersing agent, especially in oil-rich or anhydrous systems. Due to its lipophilic character, it helps stabilize the oil phase, supports the uniform incorporation of fatty ingredients and improves the sensory texture of the finished product. It is particularly valuable in cleansing balms, cleansing oils, rich creams, lotions, water-free formulas and natural cosmetic preparations, where it enhances spreadability, contributes to a silky emollient feel and leaves the skin with a soft, comfortable and well-balanced finish.
