Sometimes included in conditioner formulations for its ability to help emulsify ingredients and improve spreadability.
Ideal for formulations aimed at moisturizing the skin while cleansing.
MACKANATE LO-100 is used in gentle cleansers, particularly those designed for sensitive or acne-prone skin.
Found in products formulated to effectively remove makeup without irritation.
Sometimes included in formulations for its emulsifying properties.
MACKANATE LO-100 is used in mild liquid hand soaps and other cleaning products where gentle cleansing is desired.
Included in formulations to provide effective grease cutting while being mild on the skin.
Sometimes utilized in formulations designed for cleaning sensitive surfaces, ensuring no harsh residues are left behind.
MACKANATE LO-100 is used in formulations aimed at cleaning pet fur without causing skin irritation.
MACKANATE LO-100 provides effective cleansing without stripping natural oils from the skin or hair, making it suitable for all skin types.
Compared to traditional sulfates, it is less likely to cause irritation or allergic reactions, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
Some formulations containing MACKANATE LO-100 also include emollients that help maintain skin hydration.
