chemicalmatt said:Yo @enam you are combining an alkyl quat (Varisoft 100) into an anionic shampoo, a no-go. I’ll also add this is waayyyy over-formulated. Whassup with the PEG-7, glycerin (again: why, friends, why?), betaine, dermosoft eco (OK for skin, but for hair: Nah!) and dl-Panthenol at 2.0%? I’d dial this back. Increase the CAPB, decrease the AOS and DEL the glycerine, PEG, Varisoft, dermosoft and you won’t be needing that Crothix anymore, saving some coin there.
Thank you. The PEG-7 is to solubilize the varisoft eq 100 which worked perfectly in my other shampoo formula, Dermosoft eco is a preservative for the system, will deleting varisoft still give a conditioning shampoo? This is designed for Afro textured hair. Glycerin will go since betaine is there as a humectant.
once again I appreciate your input -

I want to use Glycol Distearate in my shampoo as an emulsifying agent concentration 0.5. Cab please someone tell me how should i use it, i mean should i add it directly in the solution or should i mix it with something else before add it to the solution.
Thanks
i think glycol distearate is a foam depressant. i noticed that when i used it in my shampoo formula and also noticed that other brands that use it in shampoos have low foaming ability.
