Pure Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (SCI) – The Ultimate Gentle Surfactant for Premium Shampoo Bars
Discover the secret to a luxurious, creamy lather that is incredibly gentle on skin and hair! Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (SCI) is a 100% natural, plant-derived surfactant (cleansing and foaming agent) extracted directly from the fatty acids of pure coconut oil. Famously nicknamed "Baby Foam" due to its exceptional mildness, SCI is the number one choice for DIY beauty crafters and cosmetic formulators to create solid shampoo bars, facial cleansers, and premium body washes without causing a hint of dryness or irritation.
🌟 Key Benefits & Features:
- Luxurious & Velvety Creamy Lather: Produces a dense, rich, and stable foam with a unique conditioned feel, elevating the user experience of any soap or shampoo.
- 100% Sulfate-Free & Ultra-Mild: One of the safest and gentlest cleansers available. It minimizes eye and skin irritation, making it ideal for baby care and hyper-sensitive skin types.
- Moisture-Retaining Cleanser: Unlike harsh commercial sulfates, SCI effectively washes away impurities while locking in natural hydration, leaving both hair and skin feeling silky-soft and nourished.
- The Star Ingredient for Solid Bars: Thanks to its solid nature, it blends seamlessly with organic butters and essential oils to create perfectly structured, long-lasting shampoo and conditioner bars.
- Eco-Friendly & 100% Vegan: Fully biodegradable, non-toxic, and non-GMO, aligning flawlessly with green and clean beauty formulation standards.
💧 Formulation Guide & Recommended Percentages:
SCI is a solid surfactant that should be heated alongside your water or oil phases during formulation:
- In Solid Shampoo Bars: Recommended concentration of 30% to 60% as the primary cleanser.
- In Liquid Facial Cleansers & Body Washes: Recommended concentration of 3% to 20%.
- Formulation Tip: Heat gently with a small amount of water, hydrosols, or carrier oils/butters until it melts into a smooth, uniform paste before customizing with active ingredients and pouring into molds.
