Sodium Lauroamphoacetate
Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)
Sodium Lauroamphoacetate is a substance that is commonly used in the cosmetic industry in many body care products. This substance is added to cosmetics and cleaning products of industrial and domestic use. It is an excellent cleansing and preferably foaming agent, producing a thick and stable foam that can remove dirt and excess oils from the skin and hair without causing dryness. Since it is mild, its use is not associated with serious side effects.
Talking about specific products, we find Sodium Lauroamphoacetate not only in shampoos, conditioners and conditioners, but also in washing pastes, shower gels, liquid soaps or even in medications designed for acne. This ingredient is also sometimes found in toothpastes or as an ingredient in mouthwashes because it can help remove plaque and food debris. It can also be found in various deodorants, makeup or bath salts. Sodium Lauroamphoacetate is therefore a multifunctional ingredient that can be found in many types of cosmetic products and cleansers, due to its effective cleansing abilities, but also because of its ability to form foam.
In contrast, the designation 'chestnut seed' for Sodium Lauroamphoacetate is probably incorrect. The true chestnut tree is a plant in the Sapindaceae family which bears edible fruits called chestnuts. Therefore, any occurrence of the phrase "chestnut tree" in connection with Sodium Lauroamphoacetate is probably based on an error.
