It appears high on the list in some formulas simply because it makes up the largest share by weight., Coconut CleanserCoconut CleanserSodium Cocoyl IsethionateA mild cleanser derived from coconut oil. It lathers generously without the tight, squeaky feeling that harsher detergents leave behind., Cocamidopropyl BetaineCocamidopropyl BetaineCocamidopropyl BetaineAnother coconut-derived cleanser, used alongside the first.
