Sodium Lauryl Sarcosinate LS-30

Sodium Lauryl Sarcosinate LS-30 is a mild, high-performance anionic surfactant derived from sarcosine and fatty acids commonly sourced from coconut oil. It is widely used in personal care formulations for its effective cleansing ability, rich foam, and excellent skin compatibility.

It helps remove dirt, excess oil, and impurities from skin and hair while providing a luxurious and stable foam. Due to its mild cleansing profile, it is commonly used in premium shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and other sulfate-free cleansing formulations.
