Grape Seed Surfactant for Clean Beauty Formulations and Natural Care Products
Grape Seed Surfactant is a mild, non-ionic cleansing agent derived from glucose and grape seed fatty acids. It appears as a light yellow viscous liquid with excellent water solubility, high biodegradability, and low irritation potential. This ingredient is commonly used in sulfate-free and PEG-free formulations, particularly for delicate skin and sensitive applications.
Recognized for its botanical origin and safe profile, this surfactant is a valuable asset in natural cosmetics, skin cleansers, baby care, personal hygiene products, green home care, veterinary formulations, and pharmaceutical cleansing bases.
Mylo Opt supplies Grape Seed Surfactant globally — available in lab-size packs, bulk containers, and industrial drums. The ingredient meets international quality and safety standards, accompanied by full documentation for regulatory compliance.
