Disodium stearamido MEA-sulfosuccinate, a surfactant, is used in cosmetic formulations. The substance has a skin cleansing and foaming effect (increases the foam formation and improves volume, structure and durability of the foam). Furthermore, disodium stearamido MEA-sulfosuccinate has hydrotropic effects (increases the solubility of a substance which is hardly soluble in water).
