Lauraminopropionic acid is a lauric acid derivative used in cosmetic formulations. Lauramine oxide acts as an antistatic agent (reduces static charges by neutralizing the electrical charge on the surface of e.g. hair), surfactant (washing-active substance) and hair conditioning agent (makes the hair easy to comb, smooth, soft and shiny and gives it volume).
