Our take
Is Disteareth-100 Ipdi a Good Ingredient?
Good: a high-EO PEG emulsifier with strong performance across viscosities, supporting stable, elegant textures with a low rate of irritation in most users. Because its value is purely formulation-based rather than skin-benefiting, it stays at Good rather than Great.
