About Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate
Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate is the sodium salt of a substituted amino acid.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to reduce tangling and roughness in hair for smooth grooming and to inhibit the growth of microorganisms in products, slowing deterioration during storage.[3] In Europe, when used as a preservative, it is permitted up to a maximum of 0.5%.[2]
