it can leave a sticky afterfeel.
Definitely get rid of PEG-400, it has no use in handwash.
What's PG? Propylene glycol? If so, get rid of that too.
Consider adding some cocamidopropyl betaine for mildness and too reduce the salt amount needed to thicken it.
1% DEA IS SUFFICIENT
Reduce the PEG 400
* Use CAPB
* Deduct DEA and examine pearl mix
* Dissolve your perfume with Alcohol (EA or MA )
* Use RH40 (Hydrogenated castor oil instead of peg 400 if needed )
* use less than .5% glycerine as moisturiser ) .
Hope this will solve your problem .
Is that actually Polyethylene glycol 400, or some other PEG derivative?
