Addressing Cloudiness in Liquid Soap Formulation

Based on the formula and the staff's feedback, the cloudiness in your liquid soap is likely caused by ingredients 3, 4, and 5:

• Ingredient 3 (Mild Preserved Eco): This preservative might be causing the cloudiness. The staff recommends replacing it with Phenoxyethanol SA at 1% for better clarity.
• Ingredient 4 (Chromium Oxide Green): This type of color is likely not water-soluble, leading to cloudiness. You should switch to a water-soluble color, such as Green Powder.
• Ingredient 5 (Fragrance Oil): Fragrance oils can sometimes cause cloudiness depending on their composition and compatibility with the base. The staff suggests mixing your fragrance oil with Flora Foam at 5% before adding it to the formula. This can help incorporate the fragrance more effectively and prevent cloudiness.

By making these adjustments, particularly changing the preservative and color to water-soluble options and pre-mixing the fragrance with Flora Foam, you should be able to achieve a clear liquid soap.
