Cafe33 said:Is your customer concern about the fragrance staying on the hair? Is that why you are using an absurdly high level of fragrance? If so your selection of fragrance needs to change.Yeah, i think we have to find a better supplier for the fragrance. Thank you!

Perry said:I think you need to find a better fragrance. When I worked on the Tresemme shampoo, we had a nice smelling, strong enough fragrance that worked using 0.5%. Even dove shampoo probably uses less than 1% fragrance.
We’ll make the fragrance .8% will that be enough?

bil7 said:You can check synthalen w 400 for resolving your separation issue high suspension low viscosity suspending agent like zinc pyrithione dimethicone we used it mostly and eliminate guar gum.
Poly 7 is cheap much better for slipperyness also can used poly 10 eliminate poly 39.
Another option for jaguar c 13s.
Or you can also put some aloveragel 2 percent for safe side depends on your formulation.Thank you @bil7, what percentage should we put for the synthalen w 400?
We’ll do a trial today. Thanks again ????

Gunther said:1. Is that 9% active SLES, or 9% as supplied (usually 70%)?
2. Is that cationic guar gum? If not, drop it.
3. Why propylene glycol?
4. Drop the glycerin.
5. It seems to have way too much salt, especially since you already have CAPB to thicken it.
6. Way too much EDTA. 0.1% is enough.
7. Don’t just blindly add citric acid. Aim for a target pH.
8. Way too much polyquaterniums.Thanks for the advice Gunther, we’ll make a trial today. What’s the ideal percentage of polyquats for shampoo?

@Perry the pearlizer keeps separating, do you think it’s the polyquat?

Hi @Pharma @Perry! Thanks for the advice. Yeah we’re also thinking about that, way too much fragrance. But the client wants to have a strong fragrance like dove shampoo. Do you have any suggestions of how can we make the fragrance stronger without making the fragance at 8.5%? and do we have to remove one of the polyquats? Thanks again!
