Coco Glucoside
| Description |
Natural Sulfate & EO-Free Surfactant Blend Coco Glucoside is a gentle non-ionic surfactant made from coconut oil and sugar. Only natural cosmetic ingredients like coconut oil, palm oil (obtained from kernels), and glucose are used to manufacture this product. Coco Glucoside does not pose any threat to the environment as it is totally biodegradable and it is safe to use as it does not contain any parabens, phthalates, and other harmful chemicals that might harm your skin. |

| Alternatives & Substitutions | We tend to prefer Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside in any recipe that calls for coco glucoside. |
