BIS-DIGLYCERYL POLYACYLADIPATE-2
Is BIS-DIGLYCERYL POLYACYLADIPATE-2 safe for seborrheic dermatitis?
Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2 is not proven to trigger seborrheic dermatitis, but it may be flagged in a strict Malassezia-conscious routine. It is a rich, complex ester used to soften skin and bind products, not a treatment active.
Laboratory work shows that Malassezia can use some selected fatty esters depending on their structure, but this exact material was not tested in finished cosmetics or human seb derm. Treat the flag as theoretical and use your repeated response to the whole formula as the practical guide.
