Foaming Oats Shampoo or Shower Gel

Naturally derived Foaming Oats Surfactant and ultra mild Sodium Coco Sulfate work together to provide luxurious big bubbles
and gentle cleansing in this clear, gel formula. Cromollient SCE is our highly substantive, water soluble emollient. Glucamate
LT thickens and Optiphen ND preserves this formula. Rose Geranium Essential Oil provides a fresh rose green scent!
Please note that our formulas are created using percentages and calculated by weight which is always best and most accurate. We
have calculated a 500gram batch for this formula. In addition, we have provided approximate fluid/volume measurements for
those who do not yet have a scale.

Formulating Tips
Water can be heated prior to adding SCS powder. Remove from heat source and cover until dissolved. Heating
the water first can help SCS to dissolve faster but is not necessary.

Never heat surfactants in a microwave!

If finished product is not thick enough, more Glucamate LT can be added.
