Note: The only way to be sure that your preservative system is working in your product is to carry out micro testing. While we are happy to pass on information and make theoretical recommendations of how to get the best out of our ingredients we can make no guarantees without this testing. There are two levels of test that a microbiological lab will do - one is a micro count which gives you a 'moment in time' look at the cleanliness of your formula and may also characterise the microbes present. The second is a Preservative Efficacy Test or PET. This is highly recommended as it tests how your product performs over time when it is challenged by microbes. You are legally required to market and sell products that are safe and microbial stability is an important part of that.

Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (Bulk)
Form: Powder/Flake. Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate is an anionic surfactant derived from coconut fatty acid and sustainable palm that are used in many cosmetic and personal care products. In particular, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate is used in the preparation of skin cleansing products such as soaps and washes as well as in shampoos and other hair cleansing products. By helping water to mix with oil and dirt, this surfactant is great at rinsing dirt away from the skin and hair leaving both feeling fresh and clean. Activity Level: Minimum of 85% surfactant solids with up to 15% free fatty acids and some residual water. Material Origin: A reaction between Coconut Fatty Acid and Sodium Isethionate. Sodium Isethinonate is created via a reaction between Sodium Hydroxide (lye), Sodium Bisulfide and Ethylene Oxide.It is made from sustainable palm oil. Applications: Use in skin and hair cleansing preparations. Use Levels: Up to 53% as supplied in rinse off formulations and up to 17% in leave-on. How to use: As this is a dry surfactant it can be blended into a dry formulation such as a dry shampoo, bath bomb, powdered facial cleanser or equivalent or can be added to the water phase of a standard, water based cleansing product (shampoo, shaving product, cleanser etc). Caution: This ingredient has quite a low water solubility so it is far better placed in a creamy shampoobase rather than clear. It is also really well suited to shaving creams, creamy cleansers and other emulsified cleansing solutions. Group: Surfactants. Alternative Names: Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, Coconut Acid,Sodium Isethionate,Aqua. EINECS: 263-052-5, 262-978-7,216-343-6,231-791-2. CAS No. 61789-32-0, 61788-47-4,1562-00-1,7732-18-5.

Surfactant AN Base (Bulk)
INCI: Aqua, Caprylyl/ Capryl Glucoside, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Lauroamphoacetate, Sodium Chloride. Directions for use: This surfactant blend has been created as the cleansing base for your shampoos, body washes and facial wash products. It has been designed to be diluted with water, floral water or hydrosol at a rate of between 10-50% depending on the strength of cleansing you require. Formulations can also be customised with essential oils, extracts and actives, all of which should be tested in the base to make sure they are compatible. Activity Level: 45%. Use Level: Typical use levels are 10-50% as supplied (equivalent to between 4.5-22.5% as actives). Formulating tips for surfactant products: Adding vegetable oils to surfactant based products often causes stability issues and as such we recommend thorough stability testing of formulations that you create that contain oils. In general an oil-enriched cleansing product will only have between 0.1-2% oil phase in total. Essential oils can also interfere with the stability of the formula and may occasionally thin the product. It is best to start off with a small amount of essential oil (0.1-0.2%) and work up from there, observing any changes in viscosity and clarity. It is usual for essential oils and fragrances to be between 0.1-1% of the formula. Group: Surfactants. Alternative Names: Aqua, Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Lauroamphoacetate,Sodium Chloride,Sodium Benzoate.
