ALMONDAMIDE DEA
Almond Foam Booster
Safety grade: C
Almondamide DEA is a mild cleaning agent derived from almond oil that helps create soft, creamy bubbles and foam in cleansing products. It also helps thicken formulas to achieve the right consistency.
This ingredient enhances the foaming and lathering properties of cleansers while improving product thickness, making the formula feel luxurious and effective during use.
