General safety info about Pentaerythrityl Tetraoctanoate from CIR

PEG-150 pentaerythrityl tetrastearate functions as a viscosity increasing agent-aqueous in cosmetic products, and is being used at concentrations up to 5%. Given the chemical structure (large molecule), skin penetration is not likely. The available toxicity data and the low ingredient use concentrations, suggest that systemic toxicity would not be likely if percutaneous absorption were to occur. Additionally, the negative human repeated insult patch test data on the undiluted ingredient were deemed sufficient for evaluating skin irritation and sensitization potential. The Expert Panel concluded that PEG-150 pentaerythrityl tetrastearate is safe in the present practices of use and concentration in cosmetics
