Although it is usually derived from coconut, synthetic forms also exist. This liquid ingredient is water-loving and has a thick texture that’s relatively easy to incorporate into different types of skin care formulas, both leave-on and rinse-off varieties. Amounts between 2-4% are used as a cleansing agent or to increase foam density, while amounts between 3-5% may be used as emulsifiers and thickening agents in leave-on products. Much lower amounts (well below 1%) are sometimes used in blends, where they serve to keep key ingredients from separating and improve penetration into skin. Sucrose cocoate is considered gentle enough to use in baby care products such as shampoos and lotions, and its safety as used in cosmetics has been established for concentrations as high as 20.6%.
