It primarily functions as a gentle cleansing agent in cosmetics because of its ability to lift dirt and oils from skin. It may be plant-derived (from coconuts) or manufactured synthetically. In its raw form, coco-glucoside is a cloudy, viscous solution. The independent Cosmetic Ingredient Review panel has found coco-glucoside is safe and non-irritating as used in cosmetics. It is used in concentrations up to 2% in leave-on products, and 15% in rinse-off formulations.
