SLES vs sodium cetearyl sulfate mildness as emulsifier?
If i use one of these two sulfates as emulsifier at ≤0.5%, which one would be more gentle for skin?
1. Sodium lauryl ether sulfate
2. Sodium cetearyl sulfate -

without knowing it for sure my instinct would say SLES is more aggressive. but the concentration is very low so I don’t think there will be a difference if the target group is not completely sensitive.
IF you wanna make a Cream I would look for alternatives because both are very foamy and that would lead to bubble build-up on the skin.

What anionic emulsifier do you suggest for pH 4 emulsion?

that would greatly depend on the goal you have. Can you describe what kind of product you wanna make?
Is it cream, lotion, a cleanser, a body wash Shampoo?
