Vevy Europe S.p.A. PME

Vevy Europe S.P.A. Pme is a substitute for petrolatum and silicones, emollient, lubricant, skin protectant and water repellent: it does not prevent insensible perspiration. 2. A minimal percentage of PME in O/W and W/O emulsions, whether lotions or creams, maintains indefinitely the viscosity/temperature equilibrium by means of which the emulsion has the same viscosity and the same consistency at 20°C and 55°C. PME is the first thermorheostatic agent to be used dermopharmaceutically; it is completely harmless.
