About Calcium Thioglycolate

Calcium Thioglycolate is the calcium salt of thioglycolic acid.[1] Its properties and sensory feel in a finished product may vary depending on the concentration, the ingredients used with it, the formulation's acidity, and manufacturing conditions. In cosmetics, it is used to remove hair from the skin's surface, soften hardened keratin so it can be removed more easily, and cause reactions that reduce other ingredients.[2]
