Ingredient

Sodium Gluconate

Low risk

FunctionChelator

What it is — Sodium Gluconate is the sodium salt of gluconic acid.

What it does — It works as a chelating agent, binding trace metal ions so a formula stays stable and preservatives and actives work reliably.

Typical use — Used at low levels across many skincare and haircare products as a stability aid.

Who it suits / good to know — Generally suitable across skin types; it is a supporting functional ingredient rather than an active.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk. This is general information, not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is reactive.
