Decyl glucoside has great foaming properties and is dermatologically compatible. Decyl glucoside is a non-ionic surfactant with a vegetable origin and is free of palm oil.It is derived from coconut and produces good, stable foam that can be used as a foaming agent, conditioner, or emulsifier. Decyl glucoside has great foaming properties and is dermatologically compatible. As a result, it is appropriate for use as a base or co-surfactant in cosmetic surfactant washing treatments. It enables for the addition of other substances (oils and additives). It can be used with other glucosides to improve the foaming and skin conditioning effects.
Combine with additional surfactants to create a foamy product with skin cleaning properties. Works well when combined with Cocamidipropyl Betain.
