It is derived from fatty alcohols.
This ingredient is found in most shampoos, bath and shower gels, bubble baths, tooth paste, and mouth wash.
It creates bubbles and foam.
It is a cosmetic detergent that removes soil and oil from the skin and hair.
It has been spread over the internet that this ingredient causes cancer, but it does not.  All this might do is cause some slight irritation to the eyes and skin.  Recognized medical journals  have done research and haven't had any published articles saying that is does cause cancer in humans.
