    Information

    Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate is a surfactant commonly used in skincare and personal care products. It is a cleansing agent that dissolves oils, dirt, and impurities on the skin. Despite its chemical-sounding name, it is derived from natural sources, making it a popular choice in both conventional and natural skincare formulations.

    Where does it come from?

    Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate is derived from coconut oil, a natural and renewable resource. The production process involves the sulfonation of C14-16 alpha-olefins, which are hydrocarbons typically obtained from coconut oil. This process transforms the natural oil into a highly effective cleansing agent while retaining some of the beneficial properties of the original coconut oil.

    What are the benefits?

    NATURAL GENTLE EFFECTIVE

    What are the benefits?

    • Effective Cleansing: It serves as a surfactant, minimizing the surface tension of water and allowing it to mix with oils and dirt, cleansing impurities from the skin.
    • Foaming Ability: It produces a thick, stable lather, contributing to the sensory experience of using cleansing products.
    • Emulsifying Properties: It can blend and stabilize oil and liquid ingredients in formulations, ensuring a uniform and consistent product.
    • Mildness: It is gentle and mild, minimizing the risk of skin irritation for most users.
