Helpful info

Thank you @Benz3ne.

Mine perfume is oil soluble. 0.2% not effective.

I know today fragrance free products are trending. But mild perfume required.  that likes most consumers in our country.

I am going to try water soluble.

If I Add Dimehicon 0.33%+D5 0.33%+amodimethicone 0.33% instead of 1% dimethicone in shampoo,  will it give extra shine?

@amitvedakar - What are you hoping keratin will do in a formula?

That makes hair smooth & shine (as it is marketed). or Is it formulating tecnic
that make shampoo better?

@abierose - The nice thing about panthenol is that you can pretty much add it to any water-based formula. Also, P&G has done such a great job of publicizing the ingredient so most consumers have heard of it and have a positive impression of it. That makes it most effective at telling a story and giving consumers one more reason to buy a product.

Is the KERATIN same story?

1.8% to 2.0%. but it depends on  how you want your cream.

The whole movement against parabens is chemophobia & not based in science. https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/cancer-controversial-science-cosmetics-health-news-quackery-toxicity/joe-schwarczs-right-chemistry-paraben-phobia-unjustified

If there was good evidence, I would be willing to change my opinion. But there isn’t good evidence. There is only bad evidence that people with an agenda of fearmongering & the naturalistic fallacy try to propagate to the public.  

[amitvedakar]

Thank you all. I found parabens are common preservative for toothpaste. Here . Will try plain Paraben.  

[amitvedakar]

well actually ADAPALENE is drug, while RETINOL comes in Cosmetics.

I think it’s a process that make  ADAPALENE more penetrating.

seaberry said:

You mean encapsulation? Encapsulation (or microencapsulation) is a method in which active ingredients can be contained in micelles or liposomes, which can provide extra stability or penetration for some ingredients like retinol. 

May be similar. this is used for ADAPALENE material  (retinol group).
