Information
Sodium stearoyl glutamate is an amino acid-based ingredient used in skincare as an emulsifier, surfactant, and conditioning agent. It is a versatile and eco-friendly ingredient known for its mild and hypoallergenic properties. It has a pH similar to human skin, making it a gentle yet effective cleansing agent.
Where does it come from?
Sodium stearoyl glutamate is created by combining L-Glutamic acid, an amino acid, with stearic acid, a fatty acid derived from plant sources with ecological safety and high biodegradability.
Gentle Cleansing: It is a non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic surfactant that cleanses the skin without irritation, leaving it feeling soft, clean, and moisturized.
Emulsification: As a potent emulsifier, it is effective even in minimal quantities, helping to stabilize and blend oil and liquid-based ingredients in cosmetic formulations.
Moisturizing: With its mild nature and pH compatibility with human skin, it provides hydration and helps to condition both the skin and hair.
Texture-Improving: It improves the texture, consistency, and sensory profile of products. It is also compatible with a wide range of active ingredients.
Environmental Safety: Sodium stearoyl glutamate is biodegradable and carries several certifications, including COSMOS, NATRUE, and ECOCERT, which highlight its natural and environmentally friendly characteristics.
