We supply Sodium Lauroyl Oat Amino Acids as INNO KWOAT-30, a cosmetic-grade liquid oat-amino-acid surfactant for mild cleansing and creamy foam.
Key Benefits of Sodium Lauroyl Oat Amino Acids (KWOAT-30)
- KWOAT-30 is made from oat-protein-derived amino acids. It combines mild cleansing with a soothing, skin-supporting profile for products aimed at sensitive, dry or easily uncomfortable skin.
- Internal comparison data place its irritation at one quarter of SLES. A third-party closed-patch study with 30 participants recorded a positive response below 0.3% for the 30% raw-material solution.
- The surfactant foams quickly and produces dense, creamy lather that remains stable in hard water. It rinses without a heavy coated feel, balancing moisturization with a clean finish.
- The after-feel works across skin types: oily skin is not left stripped, while dry skin does not feel rough after rinsing. This gives formulators a broad sensory position for facial and body cleansing.
- In shampoo, KWOAT-30 helps smooth the hair, reduce frizz and static, and improve shine. The oat origin gives the product a clear point of difference from standard coconut-only surfactants.
Recommended applications
- Use KWOAT-30 in sensitive-skin and baby-care cleansers when the product needs an oat-derived soothing story backed by patch-test data.
- It fits facial cleanser and cleansing mousse that require fast cream-like foam, hard-water stability and a clean but comfortable rinse.
- In shampoo, the grade helps reduce frizz and static while improving smoothness and shine on dry or processed hair.
- It is also useful in body wash designed to balance moisturization and freshness across both oily and dry skin profiles.

Frequently asked questions
How should KWOAT-30 be compared with a standard glutamate without sensory bias?
Match active surfactant matter, viscosity, fragrance and package, then use coded samples in a paired wash panel. Record foam, rinse drag, post-wash comfort and delayed tightness so brand cues do not influence the result.
What can make an oat-amino-acid cleanser still feel tight after rinsing?
Look first at total surfactant solids, the stronger co-surfactants, fragrance solvent and final pH. Split-batch testing will show whether the discomfort comes from the cleansing base or from another component added to support texture and fragrance.
How should an oat-related soothing claim be substantiated in the finished cleanser?
Use the marketed formula and a suitable control in a defined skin-compatibility or consumer-use study. Keep irritation, immediate comfort and longer post-wash feel as separate endpoints so one positive result is not stretched into several claims.
