Polyglyceryl Oleate, a palm free w/o emulsifier, creates emulsions that feel more protective and substantive on the skin in comparison to emulsions made with o/w emulsifiers like Olivem 1000. You can use it as a co-emulsifier while making regular oil-in-water (o/w) conditioners, lotions and creams, balm-to-milk products

Polyglyceryl Oleate is “cold processable”. That means you can use it to make room temperature emulsions if none of your other ingredients need to be melted. It comes in a liquid form and can be added “as is”
This Water-In-Oil emulsifier is very good. It performs excellently well as described. The resulting emulsion for my Hair Product is really appealing. I hope this ingredient will continue to be available.
