INCI: Coco glucoside

Coco Glucoside is a mild, non-ionic surfactant used in shampoos, body washes, face cleansers, bubble bath, and other rinse-off products. It is made from coconut-derived ingredients and sugar-based chemistry, and it is especially valued for gentle cleansing and creamy foam. This is a cleansing ingredient rather than a finished cleanser, and it is supplied alkaline, so the finished formula usually needs pH adjustment into a skin-friendly range. It can also help disperse small amounts of oils in rinse-off systems.

♡ Why we love it: We choose to stock Coco Glucoside because it gives formulators a gentle, versatile route into sulfate-free cleansing systems with soft foam and broad application. Its ECOCERT, COSMOS, and RSPO approvals also make it a strong fit for more natural-positioned rinse-off products.
