Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate is a gentle, surfactant (cleansing agent) derived from coconut oil, often used in personal care products like shampoos, soaps, and cleansers.

Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate is known for being much gentler than other common surfactants like sulfates (e.g., sodium lauryl sulfate). It's less likely to cause dryness, irritation, or stripping of the skin's natural oils, making it suitable for sensitive skin.

Despite its mildness, it effectively removes dirt, oil, and impurities from the skin and hair, providing a rich, creamy lather that feels luxurious.

Since it's made from coconut oil, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate is often considered a more natural alternative to harsh chemical surfactants. It's biodegradable and eco-friendly, aligning with the clean beauty trend.

Overall, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate provides a gentle yet effective cleansing experience, making it a popular ingredient in formulations that prioritize mildness and skin health.
