    I need help to formulate a surfactant based face wash that is easy to rinse leaving squeaky skin without the slippery feel that surfactant cleansers tend to have, also without compromising the foam.

    What type of help do you need?

    Use sulfates for squeaky clean + foam.

    use surfactants ranging from 10 to 15 % all combined in ratio 6:2:1 or 4:1:.05 SLES, CAPB and CDEA respectively add glycine and PEG 5% each use preservative colour and frgrance to Qs.

    If you post your startup formula is better to help you
    The face wash foam should be no irritant to skin.
    1. SLES                    10
    2. CC DEA           1
    3. COCO GLUCOSIDE   0.5
    4. CAP BETAINE  5
    5. GLYCEROL
    6. Isopropyl myristate 0.2
    7. PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate 1
