Decyl Glucose (Decyl Glucoside)

Sometimes labeled “non-ionic surfactant,” Decyl Glucoside is the cleaning world’s answer to “hard water.” Decyl Glucoside lowers the surface tension of water (i.e., breaks down water into smaller molecules) so that soap can permeate the water more efficiently to clean your hands, body and hair.

Even better, unlike other commonly used surfactants, Decyl Glucoside won’t dry out your skin and has amazing foaming powers, letting you lather up without stripping down. We use it in our Squeaky Clean Gels and Facewashes so they are nice and bubbly and clean you effectively but gently.
