    made this shampoo using Gel-Network 

    water                                               - qs
    honey                                              - 5%
    Ales (30% )                                      - 12 %  
    cocobetaine (30%)                          -  3.5%
    SLES powder                                   - 2%
    edta-                                               -0.2%
    cocamide mea                                  -0.5%

    carboxymethyl cellulose                 - 0.6 %
    cetyl alcohol                                   - 0.3%

    glyceryl oleate                                 - 2%
    peg 150 distearate                           - 1%
    fragrance oil                                     - 0.4%
    proplyene glycol                                - 1%
    parabens                                            - 0.5%

    i used glyeryl oleate and peg 150 just to emulisfy the little lipid cetyl alcohol and fragrance but i think i went for too much.

    one thing i notice when i start mixing more sles powder or cetyl the bubble start to go away and creamy texture comes back..i left it as of now in the container approx 40 kg batch froathy and fishy eyes..i suppose it will settle in 24 hrs. but i wanted to know do we really need emulsifier glcyeryl oleate and peg 150 ?..

    Noy really. It will be much easier if you premix SLES and cetyl alcohol.
