EGDS (Ethylene Glycol Distearate) Premium Pearlizing Agent for Cosmetics
01
Product Description
Ethylene Glycol Distearate (EGDS) is a synthetic ester derived from ethylene glycol and stearic acid. It is commonly used as an opacifier, pearlescent agent, and texture enhancer in cosmetic formulations. EGDS is insoluble in water but dispersible in oils and surfactants, forming fine crystalline structures that reflect light to create a pearly or glossy appearance in products.
Aogebio® Ethylene Glycol Distearate (EGDS) is a premium pearlizing and opacifying agent specially designed to elevate the sensory appeal of cosmetic formulations. Our high-purity EGDS flakes create an instant luxurious pearlescent effect in shampoos, body washes, and cleansers, while simultaneously improving texture stability and product viscosity for a richer, creamier feel.
As a trusted EGDS supplier, Aogebio® delivers:
✔ Brilliant Opacity & Shine – Enhances visual appeal in rinse-off products
✔ Superior Stabilization – Prevents emulsion separation in lotions and creams
✔ Versatile Performance – Compatible with shampoos, conditioners, and anhydrous formulations
✔ Skin-Friendly – Mild and non-irritating for all skin types
Ideal Applications:
Pearlescent shampoos & shower gels

Pearlescence & Opacity

Emolliency & Smoothness
Forms a thin, lubricating film on the skin/hair, reducing friction and improving spreadability.
Viscosity Control
Thickens formulations slightly without affecting flow, ideal for balancing consistency in gels or surfactants systems (e.g., shower gels).
