  Keep adding more SLS until you get the foaming you want. Then add salt to thicken.

  Remove the propylene glycol first. Can’t see the point in that.

  Agree with @Bobzchemist, the simplest amd best suggestion.

  The propylene glycol will function as a solubilizer for the Eucalyptus Oil and boost preservation efficacy.  I use a variant in my cleansers and it has no discernible, deleterious effect on foaming.
