Sodium Lauroamphoacetate

Overview

Sodium lauroamphoacetate is an amphoteric surfactant, and chemically, this means it contains both positive and negative charges in addition to an oil-loving portion and a water-loving portion within the molecule.

The purpose of this ingredient is to combine with anionic surfactants, which are the heavy-hitting cleansing ingredients, to make them gentler on the skin.

Being an amphoteric surfactant, sodium lauroamphoacetate also boosts foam in skincare products. Finally, this ingredient can also help control the viscosity of various cleansing products by increasing the thickness.
