SODIUM TRIDECETH SULFATE
Safety grade: A
This is a gentle cleaning agent derived from coconut oil that helps remove dirt and oil from skin and hair. It's commonly found in shampoos and body washes because it creates a nice lather while being milder than many other detergents.
This ingredient cleanses the skin by removing oils and impurities, helps mix oil and water-based ingredients together in formulas, creates foam for a luxurious feel, and acts as the primary surfactant that allows the product to work effectively.
