DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Boosts foam quality, stabilises foam lamellae, builds viscosity in surfactant systems, and reduces surface tension in cleansing formulations.

Why It's Used: Dea alkanolamides face n-nitrosamine formation concerns (eu restriction from leave-on use) — formulators transition to mea or mipa equivalents for cleaner regulatory positioning.

How It Works: Amide nitrogen lone pair inserts at foam bubble air-water interface alongside the fatty acid chain — the amide geometry stabilises foam lamellae through the gibbs-marangoni effect reducing drainage. viscosity building in surfactant systems arises from rod micelle formation above critical packing parameter.

Typically Found In: Shampoos,body wash,cleansers

Sensitivity Concerns: Well-tolerated by most skin types.

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY

Safety Profile: Eu regulation 2014/1298: mit banned from leave-on products. max 15ppm in rinse-off only. contact sensitiser — causes occupational dermatitis epidemic in hairdressers and consumers. sccs noted no safe level for leave-on. 2016 eu restriction driven by major sensitisation epidemic.

Works Well With: Standard skincare actives

Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

Mit's sensitisation epidemic (2010-2015) is one of the most significant cosmetic safety events in modern dermatology: a dramatic increase in contact allergy patch test positive rates from <1% (2005) to 7% (2015) in the eu was directly traceable to the widespread introduction of mit in leave-on products. this epidemic prompted the fastest eu cosmetic regulatory action in history and demonstrates the critical importance of patch test surveillance in monitoring emerging cosmetic allergens.

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Stabilises o/w emulsions by reducing interfacial tension, solubilises oils and fragrances in aqueous systems, and wets oil-phase components for improved formulation homogeneity.

Why It's Used: Peg emulsifiers are selected for their precise hlb, broad ph stability (unlike soap emulsifiers that lose function at acidic ph), and compatibility with both anionic and cationic co-ingredients in the formulation system.

How It Works: Peg chain length determines hlb: longer peg = higher hlb = more hydrophilic = better o/w emulsification. at the o/w interface, the peg chain extends into the water phase forming a hydrated steric barrier that prevents droplet coalescence. nonionic character provides ph-independent function across the full cosmetic ph range.

Typically Found In: Emulsions,fragrance solubilisation

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Provides excellent foam and cleansing with significantly lower irritation than sls.

Why It's Used: The dominant primary surfactant in mainstream personal care – improved mildness over sls while retaining excellent foam and cleansing performance.

How It Works: Ethoxylation (2-3 eo units) inserts polyethylene oxide spacer between dodecyl chain and sulfate, sterically shielding sulfate from direct protein contact, reducing irritation vs sls. full micellar cleansing capacity retained.

Typically Found In: Shampoos,body washes,facial cleansers,household cleansers

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Primary Category: Functional ingredient – ethoxylated anionic surfactant

Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning

Application Areas:

Facial Skincare

Body Care

Hair Care

Beard Care

Color Cosmetics (Makeup)

Dietary/Oral Supplements

Typical Concentration Range: 2%–15%

SOURCING & ETHICS

Vegan Status: Yes – from coconut fatty acids

Halal Status: Yes

Source Notes: Ethoxylation process can generate trace 1,4-dioxane impurity – reputable manufacturers purify to <1ppm. look for sles certified with dioxane specification.

SKIN COMPATIBILITY

Irritancy Rating: 2/5 – low to moderate (significantly milder than sls)

Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 – non-comedogenic

Sensitivity Concerns: Well-tolerated by most skin types.

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY

Safety Profile: Well-established safety. ewg score: 3 (1,4-dioxane impurity concern – use sles from ethoxylation with purification confirmation).

Works Well With: Standard skincare actives

Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

Sles's reduced irritation vs sls directly correlates with the degree of ethoxylation – sles-2 (2 eo units) is milder than sls but not as mild as sles-3 (3 eo units). each ethylene oxide unit adds steric shielding around the sulfate group, progressively reducing its protein-binding and denaturation capacity.
