SODIUM COCOYL ISETHIONATE
INCI: Sodium cocoyl isethionate
What is Sodium cocoyl isethionate?
Sodium cocoyl isethionate is a sodium salt produced from coconut oil. It is an anionic compound and is also known as sodium isethionate. It is a popular substitute for animal-derived sodium salts, such as sodium tallowate, which comes from cattle and sheep. This ingredient has high foaming properties, making it a useful addition to cosmetic and personal care products.
Use & Benefits:

• Decreases the surface tension of water, making the cleanser easier to distribute on your face when you wash it
• Aids in the bonding of water and oil
• Helps water to cling to the dirt and oil on your skin, allowing them to be washed away
Suitable for use in toothpastes and infant soaps
• Mild, plant-based formula that works almost as well as animal-based treatments
Good foam-forming property
