SLES, CAPB and Lauryl Glucoside Blend
What is SLES, CAPB and Lauryl Glucoside Blend?
Combining sodium laureth sulfate (SLES), cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB), and lauryl glucoside creates a shampoo surfactant chassis with stronger mildness positioning than SLES-only or SLES–CAPB systems alone. Lauryl glucoside is a mild nonionic APG co-surfactant that reduces irritation, supports sulfate-reduced…

Combining sodium laureth sulfate (SLES), cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB), and lauryl glucoside creates a shampoo surfactant chassis with stronger mildness positioning than SLES-only or SLES–CAPB systems alone. Lauryl glucoside is a mild nonionic APG co-surfactant that reduces irritation, supports sulfate-reduced claims, and maintains acceptable foam when paired with betaine. Venus supports this blend through amphoteric, anionic, and nonionic surfactant ingredients.
Typical mild shampoo chassis
| Ingredient | Typical level (% active) | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Sodium laureth sulfate | 6–10% | Primary cleanser (reduced vs mainstream) |
| Cocamidopropyl betaine | 4–6% | Co-surfactant, foam, mildness |
| Lauryl glucoside | 2–5% | Mild nonionic, APG co-surfactant |
| Glycerin (optional) | 1–3% | Hydration, mildness |
Benefits of adding lauryl glucoside
- Improved skin and eye mildness profile versus SLES-heavy systems
- Supports "sulfate-reduced" or "mild cleanse" marketing claims
- Good electrolyte tolerance when balanced with CAPB
- Biodegradable APG chemistry aligned with eco-positioned brands
