- What is the active matter percentage?
- Which preservatives are used in this base? Are they Methylchloroisothiazolinone and Methylisothiazolinone?

Answer
Sulfate Free Shampoo Base Active Matter and Preservatives
Regarding the Sulfate Free Shampoo Base, the active matter percentage is 44%.
The preservatives used in this base are Methylchloroisothiazolinone and Methylisothiazolinone.
While you inquired about a version preserved with Sodium Benzoate, the current Sulfate Free Shampoo Base utilizes Methylchloroisothiazolinone and Methylisothiazolinone. These preservatives are permitted for use in rinse-off products according to regulatory guidelines. As noted, they are present at a very low concentration within the base, which minimizes potential for irritation when used in formulations.
