PEOFA™ MYPGSQ0802 (polyglyceryl-2 sesquicaprylate) has become a popular choice in skin care formulas with the core characteristics of plant origin, hypoallergenic, refreshing, and stable emulsification.This oleophilic nonionic surfactant has multiple effects such as emulsifying, solubilizing, emollient, and moisturizing. It also has the advantages of no risk of acne and strong compatibility. It shows high adaptability in children's skin care, sensitive skin care, oily skin care and other subdivided fields, but its own characteristics also determine that it cannot be applied to powerful cleansing shampoos. Clear application boundaries allow it to more accurately match skin care needs and become an important raw material in gentle skin care formulas.
Suitable for children's shower gel
Children's skin barrier is not yet mature, the stratum corneum is thin and has poor water-locking ability, and the resistance to external stimuli is much lower than that of adults. Therefore, the primary principle of choosing raw materials for children's shower gel is gentleness, and polyglyceryl-2 sesquicaprylate fits this core need.It has low irritation to the skin and no risk of acne. It is suitable for children's delicate skin state and will not bring additional burden to children's skin.

Suitable for sensitive skin lotion
Most of the skin barriers of people with sensitive muscles are damaged to varying degrees, and they are prone to redness, dryness, itching, and tingling. The raw materials of skin care products are almost demanding. It is necessary to achieve basic moisturizing and repairing, but also to avoid any ingredients that may increase the burden on the skin. The hypoallergenic properties of polyglyceryl-2 sesquicaprylate make it a high-quality raw material for sensitive skin lotions.
As the core emulsifying ingredient, it can make the moisturizing and repairing ingredients in the emulsion better blend, enhance the skin feeling and absorption of the product, and match with gentle moisturizing ingredients such as
Caprylic capric triglyceride, it can also synergistically enhance the moisturizing effect.This raw material is extremely compatible with various skin care raw materials. It will not conflict with the repairing ingredients in the sensitive skin lotion. The texture of the lotion is refreshing and non-sticky. After application, it will not add additional burden to the damaged skin barrier. While achieving basic moisturizing, it can also help the skin maintain a stable state and relieve the daily dry itching and redness of sensitive muscles, so that sensitive muscles do not need to worry too much about raw material irritation during skin care.
Suitable for oily skin cream
The core skin care pain point of oily skin is that the sebaceous glands secrete vigorously, and the skin is prone to oil and light. If the cream has a heavy texture, it can easily clog pores and cause acne and acne. The refreshing properties of polyglyceryl-2 sesquicaprylate can solve this problem and become an ideal raw material for oily skin creams.
As an oleophilic nonionic surfactant, it can efficiently blend the oily ingredients in the cream with the water-based ingredients in oily skin creams to create a light and easy-to-absorb cream texture. After application, it will not form a heavy film on the surface of the skin, which avoids the problem of acne from the root cause.At the same time, it can also exert the effect of moisturizing and moisturizing, and accurately solve the skin care dilemma of “external oil and internal dryness” of oily skin. While regulating the skin's oil-water balance, it adds the right amount of moisture to the skin, so that people with oily skin can not only get rid of sticky skin feeling when using face cream to moisturize, but also achieve long-lasting moisturizing.
Note: Not suitable for powerful cleansing shampoo
Although polyglyceryl-2 sesquicaprylate performs well in the field of skin care, it cannot become the core raw material for powerful cleansing shampoos. The core reason is that its own characteristics do not match the needs of powerful cleansing shampoos.
The core function of a powerful cleansing shampoo is to deeply clean the scalp and hair of grease, dust, and styling product residues. This requires its core surface activity to have strong cleansing power and high foaming properties. The rich foam absorbs and takes away dirt to achieve a deep cleansing effect.The HLB value of polyglyceryl-2 sesquicaprylate is between 7-9, which is a low HLB value surfactant. Its core advantages are concentrated in emulsification, solubilization and gentle moisturizing. The foaming ability is weak, which cannot meet the demand for high foam in powerful cleansing shampoos, and the cleansing power is not up to the standard of deep cleansing scalp oil.
Summary
PEOFA™ MYPGSQ0802 (polyglyceryl-2 sesquicaprylate), as a cosmetic raw material with distinctive characteristics, relies on the advantages of hypoallergenic, refreshing, stable emulsification, and strong compatibility to achieve precise adaptation in the three major skin care scenarios of children's shower gel, sensitive skin lotion, and oily skin cream, which not only meets the skin care needs of different skin types and different groups of people, but also can play multiple functions in the formula to improve the sense of use and quality of the product.The characteristic that it cannot be applied to powerful cleansing shampoos is not the shortcomings of the raw materials themselves, but the reasonable adaptation of the characteristics to the needs of use, making its application boundaries clearer.
Of course, the value of a high-quality cosmetic raw material lies not only in its own characteristics, but also in the synergy with other raw materials and the precise matching of scene needs.polyglyceryl-2 sesquicaprylate always adheres to its own application boundaries and maximizes its value in suitable skin care scenarios. This “precise positioning” characteristic also makes it a potential “powerhouse” in the cosmetic raw material market.This raw material will also play a role in more segmented skin care scenarios. It will be used with raw materials such as
Thickening suspension to further optimize the texture of the product, and provide more accurate and high-quality raw material solutions for the skin care needs of different skin types.
