I also like to use SCI in shower gels and solid shampoo. It provides a consistent lather, and increases the viscosity of the shower gel. An indispensable ingredient.
Good product but it should not be heated a lot and that's why the pieces should be smaller, even fine, they are very big and take time to melt. I do not recommend.
For bath balls only this type of surfactant I use to make decent lather and is gentle on skin. Fine granulation and dissolves perfectly.
I made shampoo. i like how it came out and it also lathers thicker and lathers more. It's fab.I will try it for a baby soap too.
I've used tenside to make effervescent bath balls. The foaming is moderate in this case. I like that I can include vegetable oils without the oily feeling on the skin at the end of the bath.
I use it in bath bombs and it has a moderate foaming power but gentle on the skin. I would have liked to have two versions, high and fine granulation. I recommend this product ☺️
I use it when making cleanser. It gives it good foaming properties and is gentle on the skin. I'm glad it's available in powder form again.
Not to be found in solid shampoos along with ayurvedic powders. I personally prefer the flakes version which is less powdery.
Like tenside SCS it can be used in bath bomb recipes, producing a nice froth.
I made the shampoo for oily hair, the tenside is very good, even very foaming, want to try it in other shampoos.
This solid tenside is perfect for the preparation of many hair and skin care products , I am pleased with it and its properties, it is easy to work with it and combined with other tensides you can create wonderful products.
Once I discovered an easy way to marinate it before use (on a flat surface, on a sheet of paper, rolled with a bottle previously disinfected and necessarily wearing a mask during this operation) the preparation of products (shampoo, face wash) became easy. A very good and useful product!
The powder is really fine and very easy to work with, the results are uniform and smooth shampoo bars. I ll definitely buy again
Great remedy I love to make from it not only a solid shampoo, but also a cream-gel for shower and bath. Be sure to use goggles, mask, gloves!
I use this tenside along with coconut tenside, powder, in the formulation of my anti-dandruff shampoo.
Very good quality, do not stick to fingers; indispensable for cold process soaps (CP)
Experiment cleanser. One did not harden enough being able to mold after each use. The other did not melt enough and large particles remained. Where did I go wrong? I saw in your suggested Recipes that the percentage used is quite high over 50% although in the instructions you raise the percentage up to 60%.
I use this tenside for a liquid shampoo, it dissolves quite easily in water makes a consistent lather and cleans f well.
This tenside is very high quality, easy to work with, the lathers are rich and gentle. I have used it in both solid shampoos and face cleanser. Love it on hair and skin too!
