About Sodium Stearyl Sulfate

Sodium Stearyl Sulfate is the sodium salt of stearyl sulfate.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to help sebum and impurities be washed away with water, create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly blended, and reduce surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
