why we use sodium gluconate
The Basics
Sodium Gluconate is a naturally derived ingredient commonly used in cosmetic formulations for its chelating properties. It binds to metal ions like calcium and magnesium, preventing them from affecting product stability and performance. By neutralising these ions, it helps maintain the clarity, texture, and efficacy of formulations over time. Additionally, Sodium Gluconate has mild skin-conditioning properties, contributing to smoother and softer skin.
