    I have not really idea for the precise amount to reduce so you should work on it , but as start point try in total 10 % (glycerin and CAPB) and as you said it seems good idea to increase the level of CSI and SCS.

    In your case @MangoMonster Cetearth-25 can do the job without Steareth-20/21.

    @Perry thanks for reply, i’am sure that slow down mixing will reduce bubble however process (mixing) will take longer time to have liquid soap also i hope understanding why LABSA need Just 1day with same mixing speed ?

    @LuisJavier i think from 10 % to 50 % will be good if you have not problem to intrduce more water 10 % will be better cause the amount of NaOH will be more precise .

    January 7, 2020 at 8:06 pm in reply to: How to reduce viscosity of this detergent liquid?

    @RedPill a lot of options can be done so i think the easiest as @Perry said adding NaCl  but also adding AOS or by playing in pH you can do it . I think that  the best way is taking one kilograms of your product add gram by gram NaCl untill you reach the desired viscosity , then you will find the best level of NaCl  for you product , finally do correction to your batch refering to sample correction.

    @Cafe33  So neutralizing 1.00g of Carbopol with 4.50 g of l-Arginine… Is that what the neutralization ratio means? 
    actually  yes  just becarfull of the concentration of initial product , so returning to table you will find NaoH has 18 % concentration same for KoH , TEA 99 % , Tris amino  40 % so if concentration change you should make the adequat  amount knowing c1*m1 =  c2*m2   wich gives m2= m1 * (c1/c2) .

    @Gunther thanks a lot for help i agree with you about the  importance of essence quality however in my country there are a low cost perfume (means 10 dollars for a litre ) that can be last more then 24 hours. So the aim is making such product wich is for me high quality with a low cost .

    @tinas  glycerol will need for sure emulsifier ‘surfactant’ to add in oil phase because it is hdrosoluble .
