Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (SCI)
Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (SCI) is a gentle surfactant derived from coconut oil, often referred to as "Baby Foam" due to its exceptional mildness. With a high foaming ability, SCI produces a stable, rich, and velvety lather without dehydrating the skin, making it an ideal choice for water-free products as well as skincare, hair care, and bath products.
This conditioning cleansing agent is suitable for delicate skin, including baby products, makeup, and personal care items. Its emulsifying property allows water and oil to mix, making it popular in soaps, shampoos, and other foaming products.
