LAURYL GLUCOSIDE
INCI Name: Lauryl Glucoside

CAS Number: 59122-55-3

Product Description
Lauryl Glucoside is a non-ionic surfactant derived from natural sources, typically corn glucose and coconut or palm oil. It’s known for its exceptional mildness, making it ideal for sensitive skin and baby care formulations. Lauryl Glucoside gently cleanses without stripping the skin or hair, and it boosts foam and emulsification in both rinse-off and leave-on products.

It’s biodegradable, COSMOS-approved, and compatible with other glucosides like Decyl Glucoside and Coco Glucoside, making it a versatile choice for sulfate-free and eco-conscious formulations.
