  Shower Oil Development - Regulation of MIPA & TIPA-Laureth Sulfate, Laureth-3, Cocamide DEA

  Posted by vjay on February 22, 2019 at 6:06 am

  Hi, 
  At present i am developing Shower Oil and i had seen many formulation as well marketing samples for the net and generally in shower oil formulator are using blend of oil like Soyabean Oil, Sunflower Oil, Castor Oil, Light liquid paraffin,etc.. approx 55 to 65 % and MIPA-Laureth Sulfate, Laureth-4, Cocamide DEA OR TIPA-Laureth Sulfate, Laureth-3, Cocamide DEA using 30 to 40 % approx, and remaining % is additives.

  I checked on EU  MIPA-Laureth Sulfate - have restriction Annexure III/61, Maximum secondary amine content: 0.5% applies to raw materials and for TIPA-Laureth Sulfate - Maximum allowable limit is 2.5 %.

  Now i am wondering if limit are this much less, how formulator can use upto 30 to 40 %,

  I checked supplier’s formulation in that also using 30 to 40 %.

  And i also tried so below 30 % we are not able to make the shower oil, if any body have a knowledge about this matter please advise me.

  I had requested to supplier but in INCI its mentioned first so may be concentration of MIPA-Laureth sulfat is high.
