The use of essential oils in beauty and personal care products has increased over 50% in the last five years (Mintel GNPD 2015-2020). This formulation uses ALPHA-STEP® PC-48, a sulfate-free, naturally derived anionic surfactant with hydrotropic properties that may allow you to incorporate essential oils into your cleansers without the need for additional solubilizers. Making a body wash or shampoo instead? This formulation is easy to scale up (or down!) by adjusting the total surfactant actives.
