Description - Lauryl Glucoside is a naturally derived, non-ionic surfactant and mild cleanser crafted from renewable plant-based sources such as coconut oil and sugar. With 50% active surfactant matter, it is celebrated for its exceptional mildness, making it ideal for all skin types, including sensitive and baby skin. Known for delivering rich, stable foam without causing dryness or irritation, it enhances the cleansing performance of a wide range of skincare and haircare formulations. Its biodegradable and sulfate-free nature makes it a gold-standard ingredient for clean, eco-conscious beauty products, offering a perfect balance of efficacy, gentleness, and sustainability.
