"I was reading a scientific journal that said Cocamidopropyl Betaine and Coco Betaine are similar but different. Coco Betaine would be considered the natural version where as Cocamidopropyl Betaine would be the synthetic version, and easier accessible. I see that the name of yours is Coco Betaine in parenthesis in the listing. Would it actually be Coco Betaine? Thank you so much for your help!"

	"Foaming bath whip"
COMMENTS: I make my own foaming bath whip, this surfactant performs perfectly in my formula! It enhances lather and leaves the skin soft and smooth. I plan to make some bubble wands and bubble bath, so I will definitely need to order the gallon size. What I love about this surfactant is the pH isn't as high as some of the other gentle surfactants. So it's easier to control the pH of the final product.

"Powerful stuff"

COMMENTS: I was trying out a different BB recipe when I was using this. In combination with SLSA this is some powerful stuff at a very low dose. About .8% of total batch weight even just a crumble off the bath bombs and the water was extremely silky smooth. The bath bombs didn't survive sadly but they feel so nice even when the crumbly bits are mixing into the water. Extremely effective. Great for the price.
