Laureth-23

Laureth-23 is a synthetic polymer derived from lauryl alcohol and ethylene oxide. It functions as a surfactant and emulsifier in cosmetic formulations. This ingredient helps to mix oil and water components, creating stable and uniform products. It also aids in cleansing by reducing surface tension.
