Potassium Cocoyl Glutamate

Potassium cocoyl glutamate is the potassium-salt variant of the glutamate surfactant family — coconut fatty acids esterified with the skin amino acid glutamate. It delivers gentle, pH-skin-friendly cleansing with a pleasant foam and an exceptional irritation record. At 5–20% it appears in gentle facial and baby cleansers, often blended with its sodium cousins for foam refinement. It rinses without tightness because it does not strip barrier lipids — the measurable difference between mild cleansing and merely diluted harsh cleansing. A first-choice INCI for sensitive-skin wash routines.
