Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS)（Cat No.:M050001）, is a synthetic detergent and surfactant commonly used in personal care and household products. It’s known for its ability to create foam and emulsify, making it a key ingredient in products like shampoos, soaps, toothpaste, and cleansers. SLS helps remove dirt, oil, and debris from surfaces, including skin and hair, enhancing the cleaning and foaming properties of various products. However, it can also be harsh and potentially irritating to some individuals with sensitive skin. Therefore, milder alternatives are sometimes preferred in skincare products, especially for those with skin sensitivities.
