Phenonip® P4) at 1%
Answer
Based on the staff's reply, they recommend an adjusted formula for your herbal shampoo. They did not provide proportions for your original list of ingredients (Mild-Wash™, Coco Glucoside, Flora Foam™).
For 500g of herbal water, the staff suggests adding the following ingredients and proportions from their recommended list:
- Cond-Foam™ (Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Liquid): 30% (which is 150g for 500g of herbal water)
- Lactic Acid (AHA) 88%: Add to adjust the pH of the formula to be in the range of 5-6.
- Preservative (Phenonip® P4): 1% (which is 5g for 500g of herbal water). The staff specifically recommended Phenonip® P4 at this concentration due to the potential for microbial contamination from the herbal water.
