The functions of the cosmetic ingredient

CLEANSING : Helping to keep the body surface clean.

SURFACTANT - CLEANSING : Wetting body surfaces, emulsifying or solubilizing oils, and suspending soil (generally, such ingredients contribute to the foaming and lathering properties of cleansing products).

SURFACTANT - EMULSIFYING : Helping suspensions or dispersions of liquids in a second liquid by reducing the surface tension of the substances to be emulsified.

VISCOSITY CONTROLLING : Increasing or decreasing the viscosity (thickness) of cosmetics.
