About Ammonium Laureth-7 Sulfate

Ammonium Laureth-7 Sulfate is an ingredient in salt form, made up of an acid and a base.[1] The number 7 at the end of the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added. This changes the balance between water-loving and oil-loving parts, resulting in differences in cleansing power, emulsifying ability, and skin feel. In cosmetics, it is used to help sebum and impurities rinse away with water, create lather during use, and lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[1]
