Lauroyl glutamic acid (Cat.No:I030551) is a derivative of glutamic acid and lauric acid. It is commonly used in personal care products and cosmetics as a surfactant and emulsifier. Lauroyl glutamic acid helps to improve the stability and texture of formulations, providing a smooth and creamy consistency. It also exhibits mild cleansing properties and is gentle on the skin.
