One advantage is its ability to adjust the pH of a product. Sodium citrate is a pH buffer, meaning it can help balance the pH of a product and make it more suitable for use on skin and hair. It is also a chelating agent, meaning it can help remove impurities and build-up from the skin and hair.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to its pH-balancing and chelating properties, sodium citrate is also said to have skin-conditioning and hair-strengthening properties. It is a source of citric acid, a natural alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) known for its exfoliating and antioxidant properties. Sodium citrate is also thought to have some moisturizing properties, which can help keep skin and hair hydrated.<\/p>\n<h2>How is sodium citrate used in soap, shampoo and cosmetics?<\/h2>\n<p>Sodium citrate is a common ingredient in all kinds of soaps, shampoos and cosmetics. It is often used in combination with other ingredients to provide a variety of benefits to the skin and hair.
