For adults: Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate is generally safe in skin products. It is used as an emulsifier and shows low concern for long-term health issues. There is a small chance it can irritate skin, eyes, or, rarely, the lungs if inhaled.
If you are an adult or teen using a cream or lotion that contains this ingredient, use it as directed. Do a small patch test on your inner forearm before using a new product widely, especially if you have sensitive skin. If you have breathing problems, avoid inhaling sprays or mists that contain this ingredient.
Watch for redness, itching, stinging, or swelling after applying a product — these signs may mean irritation. The note about possible irritation comes from a formal cosmetic ingredient review (Cosmetic Ingredient Review). Also be aware that some product-verification programs require manufacturers to provide safety data before including this ingredient in certified items; this is a restriction by those programs, not a finding of major harm. Stop use and consult a healthcare provider if you have a strong reaction.
