Overview
Disodium lauryl sulfosuccinate is a mild anionic surfactant widely used in personal care products. It delivers rich, creamy, and stable foam without leaving a slippery feel, ensuring easy rinse-off. Its excellent cleansing power combined with low degreasing makes it ideal for gentle formulations. This surfactant is known for its ability to reduce the irritation potential of other harsh surfactants when combined, making it a preferred choice for sensitive skin products.
