Description
Lauroyl Lysine is a derivative of the amino acid lysine and lauric acid. In cosmetics, it is used as a texturizer, softener, and regulator of skin sensation. It makes the texture of the product silky, light, and pleasant, reducing the feeling of stickiness or greasiness after application. It also improves the longevity of makeup (such as powders and foundations), providing a smooth glide and matte finish. Suitable for sensitive and oily skin, non-comedogenic.
