Summary

Cleansing Skin Conditioning Emollient Surfactant - Foam Boosting

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient operates by several mechanisms: as a cleansing agent, it helps remove impurities from skin surfaces. As an emollient, it forms a protective layer, reducing transepidermal water loss and imparting a soft, smooth feel to the skin. Furthermore, its surfactant properties lower surface tension, aiding in even product distribution, and it acts as a foam booster to improve the volume, texture, and stability of lather in cleansing products.
