General Description

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) Powder is a high-foaming, anionic surfactant widely used in the cosmetic and personal care industry. It is a fine, white powder known for its powerful cleansing and emulsifying properties, making it an essential ingredient in shampoos, body washes, soaps, and other hygiene products. SLS Powder effectively removes dirt, oil, and impurities, producing a rich lather. Many manufacturers buy SLS Powder in bulk for large-scale production, and it is available for wholesale and industrial sales globally.

Uses in the Cosmetics Industry

Shampoos & Conditioners: Provides deep cleansing and creates a rich, foamy lather.

Body Washes & Facial Cleansers: Helps remove dirt, oil, and makeup while improving texture.

Toothpaste & Mouthwash: Acts as a foaming agent for better spreadability and cleansing.

Hand Washes & Liquid Soaps: Enhances detergent properties for effective hand cleaning.
