Lauryl Glucoside
Lauryl glucoside is a glycoside produced from glucose and lauryl alcohol. It is made by combining corn sugar and either coconut oil or palm oil. It is derived through natural processes.
Lauryl glucoside is a surfactant and cleansing agent used in cosmetics, personal and home care products. It is biodegradable.
Lauryl glucoside can be used alongside other glucosides to enhance the foam and skin conditioning properties. It is very effective when used in ionic formulations to add foam depth and emulsifying properties. Also, it creates an excellent and stable foam and is useful in hair care products where it aids hair cleaning abilities without stripping the hair.
