METHOD OF MANUFACTURE

Phase A

1. In a disinfected glass beaker weigh the Lauryl glucoside.
2. Add the SCI powder. Please make sure you wear a mask so you don’t breathe in the fine powder.
3. Add the Decyl glucoside.
4. Finally, add Lamesoft
5. Heat the surfactants gently in a water bath and stir occasionally. Stir it gently to avoid creating a lot of foam.

Phase B

1. While the surfactants are melting, weigh your Phase B ingredients in another beaker.
2. When the surfactants are melted and translucent, remove from the water bath and let them cool a bit.
3. Add the hydrosol blend (Phase B) to the surfactant blend (Phase A) and stir slowly but thoroughly. You will find the blend to be quite runny but it will thicken as it cools.

Phase C

1. Add all Phase C ingredients to the shampoo base.
2. Stir it well but slowly to avoid creating a lot of foam.
3. Check the pH and adjust it to around pH 5.5 if needed. The pH is too high so we will lower it with lactic acid to pH 5.5.

Phase D The pH is now 5.5, so we can add our preservative.

1. Add the Preservative Eco.
2. Finally, add the grapefruit essential oil.

The shampoo is now ready but you will see it has a lot of foam. Keep the blend in the beaker for a while and the foam will settle down within 24 hours. It will also become clear which is very pleasing to look at. Transfer it into a pretty bottle and label.
