Formulation view Shampoo combines soap-base and amphoteric surfactants, enriched with coconut oil and hydrolyzed milk protein for hydration, plus silicones and cationic polymers for slip. Preservation uses DMDM hydantoin. Suited for dry, damaged hair. Factory perspective: Cationic polymers coexist with anionic surfactants, requiring careful emulsification compatibility checks. DMDM hydantoin is a formaldehyde releaser with strict regulatory limits, necessitating compliance attention for export markets.

Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate
- Sulfate surfactant at 1–5%; strong cleansing, may cause dryness/irritation
- Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine
- Mild amino acid amphoteric surfactant for cleansing and foam boosting; low irritation, biodegradable
- Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate
- Mild cleanser with rich lather and low irritation; hygroscopic, requires moisture-resistant packaging
- Ppg-2 Hydroxyethyl Coco/Isostearamide
- PPG-2 hydroxyethyl coco/isostearamide; anionic surfactant for cleansing; note PEG-related considerations.
- Cocos Nucifera Oil
- Occlusive moisturizing oil at 1–10%; highly comedogenic, use with caution for oily skin.
- Hydrolyzed Milk Protein
- Hydrolyzed milk protein, moisturizer; label for lactose/milk protein allergy
- Albumen
- Not decoded yet
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Amodimethicone
- Amino silicone for hair conditioning/antistatic; cationic, conflicts with anionic surfactants
- Glycol Stearate
- Glycol stearate emulsifier and thickener; improves texture and feel, generally well-tolerated.
- Peg-120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate
- PEG-modified emulsifier; mild, low-foam. For O/W and anhydrous systems, check compatibility and viscosity.
- Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride
- Cationic guar derivative for antistatic, film-forming, viscosity control; common in hair/skin conditioning
- Polyquaternium-6
- Not decoded yet
- Polyquaternium-10
- Cationic polymer for fabric or hair smoothness; generally low irritation but may conflict with other cationic actives
- Laureth-4

- Laureth-23
- Not decoded yet
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- Cetrimonium Chloride
- Cationic surfactant/preservative for conditioning; irritating at high levels, restricted use
- Trideceth-12
- Not decoded yet
- Tetrasodium Edta
- Chelator removing metal ions to enhance antioxidant and preservative efficacy; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, no direct skincare function.
- Sodium Chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Diazolidinyl Urea
- Formaldehyde-releasing preservative; EU cap at 0.2%; avoid for formaldehyde-sensitive users
- Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate
- Broad-spectrum preservative; mild irritation; caution for sensitized skin.
