What It Does

CAPB is the gentle sidekick to SLES. It's a mild surfactant derived from coconut oil that boosts foam, makes your shampoo feel softer, and reduces irritation. Think of it as the ingredient that makes harsh cleansers actually pleasant to use.

Why You Need It

• Makes foam thicker and creamier
• Reduces the harshness of SLES and other sulfates
• Gentle enough for baby products and sensitive skin
• Improves the feel - makes products less stripping
• Conditions while it cleans
• Derived from coconut, so it's more "natural-friendly"

How to Use It

Add 2-5% to your shampoo or body wash formulas.

Most common ratio: For every 10% SLES, add 2-3% CAPB.

It mixes easily with water and other surfactants. Just blend it in during the mixing stage. No heating needed.

Works Great In

• Shampoos (especially gentle or baby formulas)
• Body washes
• Face cleansers
• Hand soaps
• Bubble baths
• Pet shampoos

Real Talk

If you're only using SLES in your shampoo, it'll clean but feel harsh. Add CAPB, and suddenly your product feels premium. The foam gets better, the feel improves, and customers notice the difference.

It's one of those ingredients that seems optional until you try it - then you realize it's essential.
