Cetearyl Glucoside

Cetearyl glucoside is a chemical primarily used as an emulsifier in lotions, creams, and foams.

Skin contact with cetearyl glucoside is required for it to cause a rash. Discontinuation of exposure to products containing cetearyl glucoside should result in improvement and/or resolution of your dermatitis. By law, all products made in the U.S. for topical use have

the ingredients listed either on the product package or the box that contains it, so check the labeling of your skin care products for this ingredient. If there is not enough information, ask your retailer or pharmacist or contact the company directly. At work, request a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) to help identify potential sources of exposure.
