    I made a shampoo with Vanzan that worked well, as I’m no longer able to source VanZan I had to replace it with Amaze xt but now it wont thicken, please help with below formula, the only thing I have changed is the Vanzan. What can the problem be is it the ratio to surfactant to water?

    I have also tried to eliminate Cocamidopropyl betaine and also Lamesoft, same result.

    Aqua 26%

    Amaze xt 2%

    Aloe vera gel 5%

    D Panthenol 1%Rose Geranium Hydrasol 1%

    Glycerine 5.5%

    Oliv M 300 2%

    Menthol crystal 0.5%

    Vit E acetate 0.15%

    Rosemary essential oil 0.5

    Lemon essential oil 1%

    Peppermint essential oil 1%

    Capric Caprylic Triglyceride 4%

    Coco Glucoside 18

    Decyl Glucoside 10

    Cocamidopropyl Betaine 14

    Lamesoft PO65 9

    How do you incorporate the Amaze XT ( when in process, how long do you mix)?
