Directions

Add it slowly to the water or surfactant phase with gentle mixing to control foaming, typically using 5–20% of the total formula depending on the desired cleansing strength. For improved mildness, it is often blended with amphoteric or non-ionic surfactants, and all water-based formulations must be properly preserved.

Warning

For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children. Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.

Great Product, Crazy Price Hike!

"Love this product as an alternative to SCI. Price was great when I initially started using in Nov/Dec 2023. Amazed at the price hike in less than a year. . . . it has almost doubled."

Foaming

"This product very irritates the skin. If you buffer you get no foam. I am looking for an anionic surfactant for liquid forms with lower pH, but not succeeded."
