    Does adding water to slurry or the other way around make a difference?

    I dont have access to sodium lauroyl sarcosinate..gel aqua is liquid carbomer..so with sodium cocoyl glutamate??Padmavathi said:

    See if you can replace cocoyl glutamate with sodium lauroyl sarcosinate 20%. Increase coco betaine to 15%. Bring down CMEA to 1 or 2% (may not even be necessary). 
    Now I think you can thicken with salt and CDEA 1-2%.
    Also check if silicones are affecting your viscosity. 

    I dont think glycerin is going to help with color protection or anything.

    What is Gel aqua?
