The Science
Sodium lauryl sulfate is used in laboratory testing to damage the
skin's natural barrier function. One of the most important functions
of skin is to keep things out. Things like chemicals, bacteria, and
viruses would have unfettered entry into our bodies if it weren't
for our skin. When a scientist wants to see what happens if a
particular chemical does get in, they reach for sodium lauryl
sulfate.
