May feed Fungal Acne
These ingredients are considered potential triggers for fungal acne, but not everyone will react to them. Because fungal acne can be tricky to identify and manage, itโs best to consult a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.
Explained
Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate is created from the diester of stearic acid and the condensation product of methylglucose and Polyglycerin-3.
As an emulsifier, it is used to bind ingredients together. Many ingredients, such as oils and water, separate naturally. Emulsifiers prevent them from separating to ensure even consistency in texture.
One of the manufacturer for this ingredient states it is vegetable-based. It is also claimed to be stable at both high and low temperatures.
This ingredient may not be safe for fungal acne. We recommend speaking with a professional if you have any concerns.
