1,2,3-Propanetriol, homopolymer, isodecanoates (1:2) (3 mol glycerol average molar ratio)

POLYGLYCERYL-3 DIISOSTEARATE is listed in the European Commission CosIng inventory under the functional category Surfactant - Emulsifying, with CAS number 66082-42-6 / 85666-92-8. In the free INCIDB sample it appears on 2 product labels, reaching position 8 on Alga Maris Crème solaire 50+. Fulton (1989) grades it 4 on the 0–5 comedogenicity scale; that grade is transcribed as-is and is the only rating source used. INCIDB's rule-derived heuristic flags it as a possible Malassezia (fungal-acne) trigger. That is a rule, not a measurement — treat it as a filter rather than a finding.
