Science
Mechanism of Action
This ingredient functions as an amphoteric surfactant by actively decreasing the surface tension between lipidic components and water on the skin. This action promotes the emulsification of sebum, makeup, and environmental debris, enabling them to be thoroughly rinsed off and resulting in a clean complexion.

Safety Profile
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) has not specifically assessed SODIUM TALLOWAMPHOACETATE. However, the CIR has reviewed structurally similar fatty amphocarboxylates, such as Sodium Lauroamphoacetate, deeming them safe for cosmetic use when properly formulated to be non-sensitizing.
