Science
Mechanism of Action
This ingredient operates through a dual mechanism within cosmetic systems. Firstly, it serves as a chelating agent, actively sequestering metal ions that can compromise product stability, clarity, or overall aesthetic. Secondly, it functions as a surfactant and cleansing agent, effectively lowering the surface tension of liquids to facilitate the homogeneous dispersion of immiscible phases, such as oil and water, thereby enabling efficient cleansing action on dermal and hair surfaces.
