Residue buildup on keratinous fibers increases cleaning time and risks surface damage. Precise control of the interfacial tension between the cleansing phase and sebum allows for rapid emulsification without stripping natural lipids.
Sulfate-free surfactant systems often suffer from poor retention of functional actives like salicylic acid on keratin surfaces during rinsing. Improving deposition efficiency ensures therapeutic efficacy without requiring higher ingredient concentrations.
