Cosmetic surfactants are an essential ingredient for many cosmetic products. They are the substances that fill and/or emulsify the product's components. This includes such things as oils and waxes, alkyds, fragrances, pigments, dyes, and preservatives.
They can have both negative and positive cosmetic properties. Surfactants with a positive cosmetic effect are sometimes referred to as humectants and can increase the emollient abilities of a formulation. Surfactants with a negative cosmetic effect are sometimes called surfactants that change the physical structure of a product or interfere with its chemical properties. Cosmetic Surfactants are designed to eliminate surface tension and help to move materials through a material. They are also used to enhance the fluidity of a liquid, thus increasing its viscosity, thickness, and lubricity.
Surfactants can be included as an ingredient in cosmetic formulas to augment the emollient and moisture-retaining properties of other ingredients, such as humectants, oil absorbers, emollients, and humectants for therapeutic applications. Surfactants are generally recognized as safe for use in cosmetics and other personal care products. However, surfactant chemicals should only be included in cosmetic formulas that are clearly labeled as "non-comedogenic" or "non-acnegenic." These chemicals have been proven to be effective against the common problems of acne, blemishes, and other skin conditions, but they cannot reverse, prevent, or treat the signs of aging.
Some of the most commonly used cosmetic surfactants are methanol, methylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, and diethylene glycol. The growing cosmetic industry is also projected to augment the growth of the market. According to Korea Cosmetic Association (KCA), the skincare cosmetics market, one of the largest import categories in Korea, was expected to reach US$ 4,944 million in 2017, from US$ 4,192 million in 2016.
