How about creating the perfect gel cleanser together?
Hey everyone, let’s make a mild clear gel cleanser. I know it’s about trying things out, but I’d really like to tap into your experience. Here are the ingredients we have:
Surfactants: Genagen 3sb blend, decyl glucoside (Plantacare 818 UP), sodium cocoyl isethionate powder, cocamidopropyl betaine (Dehyton PK 45), sodium cocoyl glutamate (Plantapon ACG 50), and Plantapon SF.
Thickeners: Rheocare TTA (acrylates copolymer), xanthan gum, Solaum AX, Sclerothix, Instanthix, and Rheocare C Plus (carbomer).
Preservative: euxyl PE 9010.
Other ingredients: hyaluronic acid, glycerin, allantoin, and Cetiol 767, sodium hydroxide and lactic acid.
Based in your experience which surfactants do you think i should go with and which thickener is compatible with the above surfactants and can make a nice clear gel?
i’d really appreciate your help

It can depend on a few factors and your requirements, the combination doesn’t need to be too difficult.
For example:
- Genagen 3sb blend + thickener + Cetiol 767 (optional)
- sodium cocoyl glutamate + cocamidopropyl betaine + thickener
- Plantapon SF + thickener (depending on viscosity requirements)
For my cleanser, it’s a mix of Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate & Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate in a foam bottle. I didn’t make it into a gel. ASM around 5%.

genagen 3sb blend (20%) + xanthan gum (0.8%) + glycerine + allantoin + preservative
adjust your pH by lactic acid.
