About Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate

Ammonium lauryl sulfate is the ammonium salt of lauryl sulfate.[1] Its solubility and charge state vary depending on the components forming the salt and the acidity of the formula, which also affects how it interacts with other ingredients. In cosmetics, it is used to help sebum and impurities wash away with water, create foam during use, and lower surface tension so ingredients wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
