Dihxdroxyethyl tallow glycinate is the dihydroxethyl ester of glycerol with a mixture of tallow fatty acids (mainly of animal origin - beef tallow) used in cosmetic formulations. The substance acts as an antistatic agent (reduces static charges by neutralizing the electric charge on the surface of skin and hair), and foaming agent (increases foaming and improves volume, structure and durability of the foam)
