This Solid Shampoo uses key ingredients that allow the quick build-up of a creamy and luxurious, yet mild foam.
BergaSoft SCI 80 is a readily biodegradable, non-ethoxylated and suphate-free anionic surfactant. It creates a creamy foam and leaves a pleasantly soft skin feel. BergaSoft LG 50 is a mild nonionic surfactant that serves as a foam quality booster and also provides mildness to the formulation. Lipex Shea is an optimized pure shea butter with a superior crystallization profile and a high unsaponifiable content. It provides moisturizing and conditioning properties that deliver softening and smoothing benefits to the formulation.
