Sulfates are ingredients used in various products to help lift away oil, sweat, and dirt. They are found in many beauty and household cleaning products, including body wash, hair products, and face cleansers. Sulfates work by helping water mix with oil and grime, making it easier to rinse away impurities.
Some body wash formulas that contain sulfates can be too harsh for frequent use, particularly for people with dry or sensitive skin. As a result, some products are sulfate-free.
