It's clear in colour, has a viscous consistency and little to no odour.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-color=\"transparent\"\u003eSodium Lactate is an excellent humectant and has amazing moisturising properties due to its high water holding capacity. When used in a formulation, sodium lactate effectively hydrates and revitalises dry and brittle skin, whilst also helping skin maintain a healthy pH level.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-color=\"transparent\"\u003eIt has multiple purposes - sodium lactate acts as a preservative enhancer due to its properties in inhibiting bacteria growth; the salt also functions as a buffering agent and humectant moisturiser, helping to strengthen the skin moisture barrier.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan data-color=\"transparent\"\u003eWhat is sodium lactate used for?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-color=\"transparent\"\u003eSodium lactate is incredibly popular as an additive in cold process soap, as it can help produce a harder bar of soap. This makes it easier to unmould and speeds up the drying process. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-color=\"transparent\"\u003eWhen making cold processed soap, the sodium lactate is added to cooled lye water. Testing it is very important at this step, as too much sodium lactate can result in a crumbly bar of soap.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-color=\"transparent\"\u003eSodium lactate can also be used in lotions, as a substitute to glycerine to create a more hydrating product, which is creamier and thicker in consistency. As a benefit additive, the humectant properties of sodium lactate keeps skin moisturised for longer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-color=\"transparent\"\u003eAs well as delivering a hydrating formulation, sodium lactate cuts down on the stickiness sometimes found in lotion with a high glycerine content. In lotion recipes, we do not recommend adding too much sodium lactate. Typically, the sodium lactate is used at 1-3% of the total lotion recipe.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TheSoapery","offers":[{"title":"250ml","offer_id":39683325263966,"sku":"SODLAC250","price":8.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"500ml","offer_id":39683325296734,"sku":"SODLAC500","price":10.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 litre","offer_id":39683325329502,"sku":"SODLAC1000","price":13.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 litre","offer_id":39683325362270,"sku":"SODLAC5000","price":47.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 litre","offer_id":39683325395038,"sku":"SODLAC10L","price":87.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"25 litre","offer_id":39683325427806,"sku":"SODLAC25L","price":208.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1269\/7925\/products\/250ml_clipped_rev_1_2772c3b7-1fb7-4a38-8914-ccdd5353fef6.jpg?v=1713266592","url":"https:\/\/www.thesoapery.fr\/en\/products\/sodium-lactate","provider":"TheSoapery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
