Information
Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate is a plant-derived emulsifier and surfactant commonly used in skincare products. It is known for its ability to stabilize emulsions by helping liquid and oil components blend. Besides its emulsifying properties, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate is valued for its moisturizing and skin-conditioning benefits, making it a versatile ingredient in various formulations.
Where does it come from?
Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate is synthesized from stearic acid, a fatty acid typically derived from vegetable oils like palm or coconut oil, and lactic acid, which is often obtained from fermented plant sources such as corn or beets. This combination results in a mild, biodegradable ingredient suitable for a wide range of skincare applications.
