    Look at something like glyceryl oleate…widely used in both types (as a co-emulsifier). :)

    The combination of w/o emulsifier and o/w emulsifier helps to stabilize emulsion; sometimes you have to use it to reach some specific hlb (if you actually use hlb).

    I usually use dehymuls pgph and sorbitan stearate (both w/o emulsifiers) as co-emulsifiers in o/w emulsions.
