Lauroyl Lysine

Lauroyl lysine is an amino acid-lipid conjugate formed by combining lauric acid (a fatty acid from coconut oil) with the amino acid L-lysine. It functions as a skin and hair conditioning agent and viscosity controller. In cosmetic formulations, it provides a silky, smooth feel and excellent adhesion, making it a popular ingredient in pressed powders, foundations, eyeshadows, and blushes where it improves slip and blendability.
