Definition
This section has been translated automatically.

"Olive acid" means a mixture of fatty acids obtained from olive oil (oil from the olive fruit of Olea europaea, the olive tree), "PEG" means a PEG (polyethylene glycol) derivative. The number after "PEG-" (or the first number after "PEG/..) indicates the average number of molecular units -CH2-CH2-O-.

Olive oil PEG-6 esters are used in cosmetic formulations. The fatty acid ester mixture acts as an emollient (makes the skin smooth and supple).
