COCETH-5
Safety grade: A
Coceth-5 is a gentle cleansing agent derived from coconut oil that helps oil and water mix together in cosmetic products. It's commonly used in shampoos, body washes, and cleansers to create a smooth texture and improve how well the product cleanses.
This ingredient works as an emulsifier and surfactant to blend oil and water-based components together, allowing the product to spread easily on skin and hair while providing effective cleansing action.
