Tensida Decyl is a versatile surfactant used in a wide range of cosmetic formulations such as shower gels, solid stick hair shampoos and liquid hair shampoos.It provides effective, gentle cleansing.
I used this surfactant to make a homemade shampoo and am very pleased with the results! The shampoo had a rich lather and my hair stayed silky. I will definitely be using it in my future recipes!
I've been using it for over 5 years, in shower gels and shampoo, in combination with other tensides in Elemental's range. They are all very good and you can create exceptional quality care products with them
Gentle and effective tenside, ideal for gentle cleansing products. It lathers gently, does not irritate the skin and blends easily into formulas. Perfect for shampoos and shower gels!
I am very happy with this tenside! It cleans effectively and gently, and has excellent foaming ability.
I use it with all my shower gels, shampoos and face cleansers. Very satisfied with the product!!!
I have been using this tenside for more than 5 years. If the composition doesn't change (I hope you will let me know if it does, that would be fair), I will keep buying it. I make Mandeline shampoo for toddlers. I just add a little honey and a little olive oil.
Perfect in cosmetic formulations such as cleanser, face foam for its mild, velvety action on the skin.Can also be used by children for sensitive skin and in formulations such as shampoo.
I like it a lot in shower gels or in various hygiene products! In combination with other tensides result excellent products!
Fully satisfied, it foams very well, I use it in my skin cleanser. Product is very good, skin stays clean and velvety. I recommend!
Together with the gentle lavender base and floral waters, in a foam type container, it creates a gentle lather for washing. For both toddlers and complexion. Easy to dose and handle, dissolves easily into recipe ingredients.
It is very good for shampoo and hand made cleansing foam. Combine with floral water and different oils.
I went through a stressful period and started to lose a lot of my hair. I gave up all the hair care and maintenance products in the stores and made a special shampoo with this base, nettle and other beneficial compounds for hair regeneration. The results were seen after a few washes.
For me it's the best foaming cleanser Elemental has to offer. It is gentle on the skin and has no unpleasant odor. After mixing with other products, the result is fluid. The foam is rich and white.
A good product that gets the job done. Added in shower gel or liquid soap helps to lather better.
