Why To Avoid Wipes With Polysorbate 20 As An Ingredient!

When it comes to our beloved furry companions, their skin health is paramount. As responsible pet parents, we carefully select products that promote well-being and comfort for our pets. In this article, we shed light on the importance of avoiding a common ingredient– Polysorbate 20 – in your dog's skincare routine.

While Polysorbate 20 is generally considered safe for human use, its application on our furry friends is a different story. Dogs have more sensitive skin compared to humans, and their skin's pH balance is different as well. Polysorbate 20, when applied to dogs' skin, may disrupt the natural barrier, leading to potential issues such as:

1. Skin Irritation: Dogs may experience allergic reactions or skin irritation due to the synthetic nature of Polysorbate 20, causing discomfort and itching.

2. Excessive Dryness: Polysorbate 20 can strip the skin of its natural oils, resulting in dryness and an imbalanced moisture barrier.

3. Ineffective Cleansing: As a surfactant, Polysorbate 20 may not provide thorough and effective cleansing, which is crucial for maintaining healthy dog skin.

4. Compromised Skin Health: The disruption of the skin's natural protective layer could make dogs more susceptible to infections and other skin-related issues.

Safe and Effective Alternatives: When it comes to your dog's skincare, opting for products with natural and dog-friendly ingredients is key. Look for alternatives to Polysorbate 20, such as gentle plant-based surfactants and moisturisers that promote a healthy skin barrier without the potential risks.

Some companies toss Polysorbate 20 into their wipes and shampoos and say, "Hey, the teeny bit of gunk in there, 1 to 10 parts per million is basically nothing to worry about." They claim that using a tiny bit of this stuff in the final product won't harm the dog but take the risk.

However, since it's hard to prove this stuff is totally safe, let's ask ourselves this: Whist the 'non-toxic' claims cannot be validated, why pick a wipe with Polysorbate 20 when there are safer options without it out there? (*Enter Bully Beauty Wrinkle Wipes*)

Picture this: If you knew your dog's food was contaminated even only slightly, would you still risk feeding them it knowing what you know? Hopefully the answer is NO! So, why rub something potentially contaminated, toxic and un-safe on your fur buddy's skin?
