- 2. PHS helps to improve the texture and spreadability of the product by reducing the "whitening effect" commonly seen with physical sunscreens.
- 3. It also helps to stabilize the product and prevent separation of ingredients.
- 4. PHS has anti-static properties that make it useful in hair care products to reduce frizz and flyaways.
- 5. It is biodegradable and considered environmentally friendly.
- 6. PHS has low toxicity and is generally considered safe for use in cosmetic products.
