    Hello!
    Anyone knows what is the maximum percentage of surfactants recommended in babies shampoo?
    I’ll be formulating using only amphoteric and non-ionic surfactants.
    Thanks!!!

    There is no legal maximum. 

    Why you want to use the maximum amount? 

    It will cost you more without any good reason.

    There is no legal limit. Use whatever amount you like and is not very drying.
    How much is drying?
    It is different for different surfactants and for different people.
