Science
Mechanism of Action
As an anionic surfactant, Sodium C10-15 Pareth Sulfate functions by significantly reducing the surface tension between different phases in a solution. This action allows water to effectively bind with and encapsulate oil, dirt, and other skin impurities, facilitating their easy suspension and thorough rinse-off from the skin's surface.
