Improving Soap Base for More Foam and Denser Texture

Improving Soap Base for More Foam and Denser Texture

If the soap base you received from the factory has less foam and is not as smooth and dense as desired, you can improve it by adding certain ingredients. This will help increase the amount of foam and the density of the soap texture.

Increasing Foam

You can add foam boosters to the soap base. These ingredients help generate more foam and improve foam stability, such as:

• Creamy Foamer™ (Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate): This is a foam booster that creates soft and smooth foam, suitable for skin cleansing products. It can be added to a soap base to enhance the softness and stability of the foam.
• BabyFoam™ (Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate): This is a gentle surfactant that provides abundant and stable foam. It is suitable for products requiring mildness and high foam. It can be added to increase the foam volume in the soap base.

Improving Soap Texture for Smoothness and Density

To make the soap texture smoother and denser, you can use thickeners that are compatible with the surfactant system in your soap base, such as:

• EasyThick ™ (POLYOXYETHYLENE GLYCERYL ISOSTEARATE): This is an easy-to-use thickener suitable for shampoos and liquid soaps, helping to increase viscosity and clarity.
• FaceFoam-LC™ (Sodium Taurine Laurate/Corn Starch Modified/Lauric Acid/Myristic Acid): This is a Liquid Crystal thickener for surfactants that effectively increases viscosity without affecting foam volume and also helps enhance cleaning efficiency.

Recommendations:

• It is advisable to start by adding small amounts of the ingredients and adjust as needed to achieve the desired foam and texture.
• Check the usage instructions and recommended percentages for each ingredient before use.
• Combining a foam booster and a thickener will help you achieve both increased foam and a smoother, denser soap texture.
