Disodium tallowamphodiacetate, a surfactant, is used in cosmetic formulations. The substance acts as a foaming agent (increases foam formation and improves volume, structure and durability of the foam) and solubilizer (acts hydrotropically, i.e. it increases the solubility of a substance which is only slightly soluble in water).
Tallow refers to tallow fat derivatives based on beef tallow.
