    One of the best mild surfactants I tried

    Posted by NG on 29th May 2019

    I am very exited to see it available in the UK. I used to order it from other places and had to pay a fortune for shipping. It's one of the best emulsifiers I have ever tried. It's very mild! Perfect for face washes in combination with Cocamidopropyl Betaine. I also like it for mild shampoos. Doesn't thicken with salt much. Works well with Crotix Liquid.
