Weekday Wonderings: Can we add carrier oils to cleansers"
In this post, Why the heck did I buy this and what can I do with it Wednesday: Sea kelp extract, Carmit80 asks: For foaming cleansers I see you don't add any carrier oils as an emollient. Would this be possible or even effective" Would l we then need to add the emulsifiers" Thanks!
There are a few questions here that I would like to address...
Why don't I add oils as emollients"
Would it be possible to add oils to a foaming cleanser"
Would we add an emulsifier to a foaming cleanser"
The answer to the first question is that I generally don't add carrier oils to foaming products like body washes, facial washes, bubble baths, and so on as oils can suppress and even destroy the bubbles, lather, and foam in a product.
There are other ways to add emolliency to a foaming cleanser that won't suppress the bubbles. We can use ingredients like glycol distearate or Crothix to both thicken and moisturize, or add ingredients like water soluble olive oil (or PEG-7 olivate), water soluble shea oil, PEG-7 glyceryl cocoate, myristamine oxide, and so on. These ingredients are less likely to suppress foam and lather than an oil.
Is it possible to add oils to a foaming clanser" Yes. A lot of surfactants - the ingredients we use to make the products foamy, lathery, and bubbly - are good emulsifiers, meaning they can incorporate oil easily into the product. If you have something like C14-16 olefin sulfonate, you can easily add something like 5% carrier oils ...
