Insufficient Data / CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - EMULSIFYING, SURFACTANT - FOAM BOOSTING

Sodium Cocoglucosides Hydroxypropyl Phosphate is a functional ingredient primarily acting as a surfactant, emulsifier, and foam booster in skincare formulations. It aids in blending oil and water phases, contributing to stable product textures and effective cleansing properties.

Summary

Cleansing Emulsifying Foam Boosting Surfactant

Science

Mechanism of Action

This compound reduces the interfacial tension between oil and water components, thereby facilitating the creation and stability of emulsions. Its surfactant properties enable it to cleanse the skin by solubilizing oils and impurities, while also enhancing foam generation in lathering products.
