I would like to eliminate the use of Phenoxyethanol, is there an alternative source? alsmith Member May 9, 2024 at 12:17 am in reply to: The shampoo does not increase in viscosity Can I use hexanediol instead of phenoxyethanol? And the 8% blank is the part with extracts, peptides, etc., is that too much? alsmith Member May 7, 2024 at 2:46 am in reply to: The shampoo does not increase in viscosity Thank you for your response. So would adding more hexanediol be enough of a preservative? Or do I need to find another preservative source and add it as well? Also, could you look at the other parts of the recipe to see if there’s anything weird? alsmith Member May 7, 2024 at 2:44 am in reply to: The shampoo does not increase in viscosity Thank you for your response. I will eliminate the Dipropylene Glycol to dissolve the Salicylic Acid.
