Unpreserved personal care products can spoil quickly (bacteria and mold degrade ingredients quickly) and can be harmful as they can induce skin infections. Therefore, we highly recommend to add preservatives to any personal care product that contains water. There are also natural preservatives available although they provide a much shorter shelf life than synthetic ones.
Youre so cool! I dont suppose Ive watch anything like this before. So good to search out someone with some authentic thoughts on this subject. realy thank you for beginning this up. this youtube video is one thing that is needed on the internet, someone with a bit originality. helpful job for bringing something new to the internet!
Theoretically, xanthan gum can be used instead of Glucose-T. The concentration should be aroudd 0.2-0.6%. However, it needs to be tested whether the thickening effect will be similar to Glucose-T
Hi, You have a great product. I have a question, Could a liquid soap made with Olive Oil and Coconut Oil can be modified adding some of your ingredients by Making Cosmetics to make a Shampo. I've added other components and when you wash your hair when you rinse it with water it leaves your hair kind of sticky. Can I add some of your products to resolve it. Thanks. Best Regards Hugo
Hi , thanks for sharing your toturial ! I have questions, if we produced the large quantity , thin , how to fix the quantity every raw matrial , to add with each .
Provided the manufacturing process is done under very clean conditions (e.g. all utensils and containers are disinfected with isopropyl alcohol before use) and the preservative (phenoxyethanol-SA) is used at the correct concentration, the shampoo should have a shelf life of about 4-8 months.
I’m trying to make liquid shampoo. I wanted to liquify natural black soap bar and add liquid silica & I was wondering how do I mix the liquid silica to already made shampoo? Or melt a bar of soap and mix it?....... please help thank you.
hi, great tutorial. Could you let me know how this shampoo could be changed to look like head&shoulders shampoo? And could you refer some references there it is possible to find out a fake shampoo? Thanks.
With phenoxyethanol-SA the shelf life should be longer than 4 months, but this depends on how clean you work and what type of packaging you use among other factors.
Hi, thanks for the wonderful video. I bought Disodium Lauryl Sulfosuccinate but it came in powdery form. How do I blend it in? Like, at which point? Thanks
Yes, how do you know the %ages by sight? I'm having trouble with calculating the formula I was sent. I know you devide the % by the total amount, then times by 100 😵 oh, I just don't know. Please help, Thanks
Hi there! You could try other cationic surfactants, such as cetrimonium chloride or behentrimonium. For more formulating questions, you can reach out to our tech department. You can reach them directly here: www.makingcosmetics.com/Contact-Us-Form.html?lang=default.
May I ask, if you skip the fragrance, do the rest of the products have any kind of smell? How can you make a non fragrant shampoo? Because I’m very sensitive to smell and don’t want any fragrance or a very very mild one
Hi, I am shopping for the ingredients for your Creamy Hair Shampoo - on your website - and I would like to add a colorant, which I also plan to use for my shower gels and hand soap, I see a bunch of different varieties, and I would deeply appreciate if you could point me to the best one for my intended use. Thanks!
You can use one of these colors (www.makingcosmetics.com/Organic-Dry-Colors_c_35.html). As they are very powerful colorants you need to add only a tiny amount (e.g. 0.1-0.5%)
Is it possible to recreate a shampoo if I still have the bottle with list of ingredients? It has been discontinued for many years already but I would like to be to remake it for my own personal use.
If you have the complete ingredient list, it's possible to reverse-engineer a formula. It's not cheap though. You can submit a request here: www.makingcosmetics.com/Formulating-Service_ep_104-1.html
Hi i want to make a sulfate, parabean and dye free shampoo that includes Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate can i go to my local collage and have this made? or where can i get help with this product?
Hi making cosmetics I wanted to make a salicylic acid wash with coco betaine and coco glucoside while using carbopol aqua sf 1 as a thickner but while I'm adding my salicylic acid (salicylic acid +propylene glycol ) the polymer gets clumpy why is this happening ?
Hello, unfortunately we cannot assess individual product issues. However, we offer formulation services if you need professional product development at www.MakingCosmetics.com
Hello, in many cases the polymer doesn't work well in acidic environments, because salicylic acid is very acidic the polymer structurer get's damaged. Try to formulate around pH 5 or higher. Please contact our tech department on our website for more help. Thank you.
can I ask, what happens if you make the shampoo without using water (to preserve it better?)? or how would you go about making a shampoo without water?
PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate is not a very effective thickener. We recommend to use Glucose-D (www.makingcosmetics.com/Glucose-D_p_1146.html) or Glucose-SORB (www.makingcosmetics.com/Glucose-SORB_p_1207.html)
Theoretically yes. But, by making that many changes we can no longer guarantee that the final product has the same performance like the one in the video.
Yes you can use a herbal decoction (Tea) instead or Herbal Extracts to replace the water. The shelf life depends but usually several months. If you intend to sell any product you will need to make bacterial testing to determine how well the preservative is working.
Please the total amount of surfactant in this recipy is 35 %.isn't it high ????..and I want to know if I can use carbabol or Hpms as a thickner in this recipy thank you
Hi, it's pretty much the same when not a bit better, has great thickening just like the Glucose-T. It's really easy to thicken shampoos and shower gels that do not contain sulfates and are not thickened with salt. Hope this helps.
Yes you can use it a shower gel as well. You can increase the peg-7 glyceryl cocoate to 4% so it will a bit more moisturizing for a shower gel, and reduce the water by 2% to keep the balance of the formulation at 100%.
Currently, we don't have video but various recipes on our website: www.makingcosmetics.com/Hair-Balm-Hair-Mask-Pomade-Formulas_ep_92.html
Glucose-T has been discontinued, but Glucose-D is very similar and can be used as alternate thickener
Thank you very much for the response. This helps alot.

This so use full.
What about hair color.
Is there is a any color base to create a professional hair . For hair. Plz create a video 😉👍🙏
The foam makers are the surfactants such as Sulfosuccinate (surfactant), Coco Betaine (surfactant), and Polyglucose (surfactant)
Thanks for the video! Can I use Coco Glucoside instead of Polyglucose at the same percentage?
outstanding! I will order my ingredients asap. thanks for the tutorial.
The total content of surfactants in this recipe is 30%. Each surfactant has an active % of about 40-50%
Theoretically, xanthan gum can be used instead of Glucose-T. The concentration should be aroudd 0.2-0.6%. However, it needs to be tested whether the thickening effect will be similar to Glucose-T
Can I use Cationic Guar Gum instead of Glucose-T?
Since the formula doesn't contain any emulsifier but just surfactant oils can be added only at a very limited amount (e.g. 1-5%)
I want shampoo menufecture. + 966535717254
But these surfactants that you added are not consedred as a emulsifiers ?????
hi i love your voice and the tutorials you made they are the best for much, tku i hope to see another video soon tku grettins from mexico
Polyquaternium-10 is not a replacement for Glucose-T or D, as polyquaternium is a conditioner whereas GLucose-T and D are thickeners.
Hi, You have a great product. I have a question, Could a liquid soap made with Olive Oil and Coconut Oil can be modified adding some of your ingredients by Making Cosmetics to make a Shampo.

Sodium benzoate can be added directly to the formula at a concentration of about 1%
How do you increase your formulated batch of shampoo or conditioner for a much bigger batch for like a 16 oz bottle ?
Thank u very much for this recipe and explanation ... can u make this shampoo more rich with ingredients
how would you tweak the recipe to make a volumizer shampoo? thanks. great tutorials!
Yes, you can use EDTA
What percentage of active surfactants does this formula have? I really appreciate your information. Great tutorials!! My best regards.
It's a sulfate-free shampoo. Sulfosuccinate doesn't contain sulfates.
Does it have tp be a specific percentage? If so what of your making for example 300ml?
If it is, how can I measure it out?
Hi , thanks for sharing your toturial !
I have questions, if we produced the large quantity , thin , how to fix the quantity every raw matrial , to add with each .
What exactly is the *Polyglucose* used for? You explained the other two surfactants.
Yes, sodium benzoate works as well
When you click on 'SHOW MORE' above you'll see then the percentages of each ingredient from which you can calculate larger amounts.
Provided the manufacturing process is done under very clean conditions (e.g. all utensils and containers are disinfected with isopropyl alcohol before use) and the preservative (phenoxyethanol-SA) is used at the correct concentration, the shampoo should have a shelf life of about 4-8 months.
4-8 months how can you make it last for a year
Is there any possibility to add saponins in your formulation.????
Hello sir

We will take that into consideration for future videos! 🙂
hi, great tutorial. Could you let me know how this shampoo could be changed to look like head&shoulders shampoo? And could you refer some references there it is possible to find out a fake shampoo? Thanks.

I’m trying to make a very thick edge control is PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate used to make the bass very thick ?
Hi how to make this shampoo have a longer shelf life then 4 months? Would it be just adding more preservatives?
With phenoxyethanol-SA the shelf life should be longer than 4 months, but this depends on how clean you work and what type of packaging you use among other factors.
What is the best thickning agent for liquid dishwash?
Hello sir you define Glucose-T but this your website has no chemical . Did you mistake?
Hi, thanks for the wonderful video. I bought Disodium Lauryl Sulfosuccinate but it came in powdery form. How do I blend it in? Like, at which point? Thanks

Yes, how do you know the %ages by sight? I'm having trouble with calculating the formula I was sent. I know you devide the % by the total amount, then times by 100 😵 oh, I just don't know. Please help, Thanks
You can add a little oil at the end of the formula
Are new videos coming. A hair serum diy would be great
We are working on new videos....:-)
Can i use EDTA in this recipe?
Quaternium-31 is out of stock, can you please recommend a substitute? Can I use Cetrimonium Chloride at the same percentage?
Hi there! You could try other cationic surfactants, such as cetrimonium chloride or behentrimonium. For more formulating questions, you can reach out to our tech department. You can reach them directly here: www.makingcosmetics.com/Contact-Us-Form.html?lang=default.
Any other alternative for glucose -t &glucose-d. I don't get these products in my contry. Thanks for the video.
You can use xanthan gum as thickener.
can you tell me please how to add Titanium Dioxide to this shampoo
We do not recommend adding titanium dioxide to the shampoo, it will not mix well.
May I ask, if you skip the fragrance, do the rest of the products have any kind of smell? How can you make a non fragrant shampoo? Because I’m very sensitive to smell and don’t want any fragrance or a very very mild one
Most cleansing agents (surfactants) have their own smell. If you omit the fragrance the shampoo will have a certain, weak smell.

You can make it concentrated without adding water, no problem, and then use less once you shampoo the hair.
thank you very much :)
Can I get any scale to measure how much preservative to use in my products?
Here is a scale: www.makingcosmetics.com/Laboratory-Balance_p_1117.html
Will the pH or thickness be afected by adding carnitine, taurine o caffeine? if so, how can I achieve a good shampoo by adding these ingredientes
We haven't tested whether these substances may influence the pH. It's possible though.
Can I add oils?
Pls could you help me with the ingredients name?
Hi there, the list of ingredients is in the description section. Click "Show more" to see the full list.
PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate is not a very effective thickener. We recommend to use Glucose-D (www.makingcosmetics.com/Glucose-D_p_1146.html) or Glucose-SORB (www.makingcosmetics.com/Glucose-SORB_p_1207.html)
Can i replace sulfosucciante to decyl glucoside, peg 7 to GLYCERINE, quaternium to cetrimonium chloride and thichner to xanthum gum
Theoretically yes. But, by making that many changes we can no longer guarantee that the final product has the same performance like the one in the video.
MakingCosmetics okay thanku
instead using 56% of water can we use 56% of herbal extract for more effective and i want to know the expiry date one year or two year
Yes you can use a herbal decoction (Tea) instead or Herbal Extracts to replace the water. The shelf life depends but usually several months. If you intend to sell any product you will need to make bacterial testing to determine how well the preservative is working.
Can we replace solfosuccinate by sodium laryl ether sulfate?????
Yes, should be possible.
Please the total amount of surfactant in this recipy is 35 %.isn't it high ????..and I want to know if I can use carbabol or Hpms as a thickner in this recipy thank you
does d sulfosuccinate n sulphate r same
there is confusion, is sorbic acid and ascorbic acid are same?
Ascorbic acid is vitamin C, whereas sorbic acid is an antimicrobial agent.
Making cosmetics.com does not have the Glucose-T but they have the Glucose-D. Is this the same thing.
Hi, it's pretty much the same when not a bit better, has great thickening just like the Glucose-T. It's really easy to thicken shampoos and shower gels that do not contain sulfates and are not thickened with salt. Hope this helps.
Glucose-T has been discontinued. Please use Glucose-D (www.makingcosmetics.com/Glucose-D_p_1146.html)
Is gelatin a good thickening agent? in a hair oil
Gelatin is a water-based thickener and doesn't work in oils.
what are the active % of yr surfactants?
Please inform me the machine you are using?
No machine is being used.
