You need to use different types of surfactants to suit the body, hands, face and hair – in different amounts – and you also need to adjust your choices and inputs to suit children compared to adults with dry skin or even oily hair! This workshop will explain how to choose between 30+ different surfactant ingredients, as well as what other essential additives you will need to help make your formulas mild while foaming and cleaning effectively. You will also learn about cosmetic solubilisers and how to choose – and use – solubilisers in cosmetic formulas. Make confident surfactant selections – enrol now!
