About

A premium amphoteric surfactant derived from meadowfoam seed oil, renowned for its exceptional mildness and luxurious skin feel.

Meadowfoamamidopropyl Betaine is derived from Limnanthes alba (meadowfoam) seed oil, a highly stable triglyceride rich in long-chain fatty acids. Meadowfoam oil is prized in cosmetics for its unusual stability and skin-feel properties. The betaine derivative combines these benefits with mild surfactant action. Not restricted under EU cosmetics law, it is used in high-end skin and hair care formulations.
