Octyldecyl glucoside
Octyldecyl Glucoside is a natural mild non-ionic surfactant used in cosmetic formularies including baby shampoo and in products for individuals with sensitive skin. Its chemical nature and the production process results in a surfactant without ethylene oxide or 1,4-dioxane , hence as to why it is suitable for baby and pet products. Many natural personal care companies use this cleanser because it is plant-derived, biodegradable, and gentle for all hair types.
