What is it?
Coco-glucoside is a gentle, non-ionic surfactant (surface active agent) derived from natural sources, that is a mild and effective cleansing agent. This ingredient is known for its excellent foaming properties and compatibility with various skin types, including sensitive skin. It is commonly used in skincare and hair care products for its ability to cleanse without stripping the skin of its natural oils.
Where does it come from?
Coco-glucoside is derived from renewable raw materials, specifically coconut oil and glucose (sugar) derived from corn or other plant sources. The production process involves the reaction of these ingredients to form a biodegradable and eco-friendly surfactant. This natural origin makes coco-glucoside an attractive ingredient for those seeking sustainable and skin-friendly formulations.
