Question
I want to use Lauroyl Glutamic Acid to increase foam in a bath bomb formulation. I understand it helps with foam, but I'm concerned about its solubility in water. Is it suitable for bath bombs, and if not, what is a better alternative for achieving good foam in a bath bomb?
Answer
Based on the information provided:
- Lauroyl Glutamic Acid can help increase foam.
- However, it has solubility limitations and does not dissolve directly in water.
- For making bath bombs, Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate powder is recommended as a more suitable and easier alternative that provides good foam.
