Sodium Lauroyl Lactylate is the product of a condensation reaction of lauric acid and lactylate.
Organic compounds
Organic compounds are an inherent part of skin care products. These ingredients are structurally similar to natural body compounds, making them efficient in many functions. For example, they easily penetrate the layers of skin, stimulate the synthesis of skin proteins, fight free radicals, and ''dissolve" dead skin cells. Thus, organic compounds visibly ameliorate skin wrinkling, sagging, and scaling.
Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate (Sarkosyl) is a sodium salt of Lauroyl Sarcosinate, an ester of Lauroyl alcohol and Sarcosine amino acid. It is a secondary surfactant in a wide range of cleansing applications.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS or Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate) is a surfactant from the alkyl sulfates family, one of the most popular detergents in cleansing applications. It is a white to yellowish powder (or needles) with a characteristic odor.
Sodium Methyl 2-Sulfolaurate is a sodium salt of 2-Sulfolauric acid, a mild surfactant with good foaming and cleaning power.
Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate is a white, soft-paste surfactant that provides a creamy, high-volume foam for facial cleansers, liquid soap, and shampoos. It exhibits outstanding foaming properties even with high oil content in the formulation.
Sodium Myreth Sulfate is a highly active, ethoxylated surfactant for use in all types. A good alternative to Lauryl Sulfates or Laureth Sulfates.
Sodium Oleate is a sodium salt of oleic acid derived from vegetable oils. It is a white powder with a slight tallow-like odor. It is soluble in water and alcohol, and its melting point is 200-210 °C.
Most traditional soapmakers use the saponification of natural oils. Thanks to its relatively low prices and sustainability, Palm kernel oil is one of the most commonly used oils used for saponification.
Soap is produced through the saponification (conversion to soap) of fats and oils traditionally either animal or vegetable derived.
Sodium Stearate is a sodium salt of stearic acid (saturated C18 fatty acid), a white, free-flowing powder or granules with a fatty texture and a slight fatty acid odor.
Sorbic acid, a six-carbon unsaturated (2,4-hexadienoic acid) fatty acid, is a white, free-flowing crystalline powder with a slight characteristic odor.
Sorbitan Caprylate is a preservative booster derived from renewable raw materials. It is a sustainable ingredient that assists the efficacy of preserving agents.
Sorbitan Isostearate is an ester of sorbitan with Isostearic acid, a completely saturated branched liquid fatty acid.
Sorbitan Oleate (sorbitan monooleate; SMO) is a partial oleic acid ester with sorbitol and its mono- and dianhydrides derived from naturally renewable resources.
Sorbitan Olivate is a natural emulsifier derived from Olive oil for water-in-oil cosmetic formulations.
Sorbitan Trioleate is an oleic acid triester of sorbitol. Its mono- and dianhydrides are derived from naturally renewable resources. This clear liquid without an odor is used for emulsifying base oils and cationics, and its HLB value is 1.8.
Soyamide DEA is a 1:1 amide based on soybean oil and diethanolamine. It is a clear, yellow liquid soluble in water.
Soyethyl Morpholinium Ethosulfate is a cationic surfactant that effectively deodorizes a wide range of malodors. It functions by complexing or neutralizing specific organic molecules and reducing their concentration in the vapor phase.
Androgenetic alopecia mainly affects men after puberty, a period in which androgens begin to interact with androgen-sensitive hair follicles, resulting in changes such as follicular miniaturization and changes in the hair growth cycle, leading to p
Stearamidopropyl Dimethylamine is a multifunctional ingredient, a hair-conditioning agent, thickener, and emollient that appears as white to yellowish flakes.
Stearamidopropyl PG-Dimonium Chloride Phosphate is a multi-functional phospholipid and diester phosphatide with multiple long-chain alkyl groups derived from purified natural palm oil.
Stearyl Glycyrrhetinate is a white or yellowish-white powder, a Glycyrrhizin (or glycyrrhizic acid) ester derivative.
Stearyl Phosphate is a biodegradable organic phosphate monoester. It is an off-white waxy flake (with a melting point of 73°C) derived from a long-chain aliphatic alcohol.
Sucrose Polybehenate is a sucrose-derived ester with the traditional properties desired in an emollient. Still, it has outstanding additional benefits, such as film forming, suppleness, and wash and wear resistance.
Sucrose Polysoyate is a sucrose-derived ester with the traditional properties of other emollients and other outstanding properties. It exhibits proven suppleness, and wash and wear resistance.
