Crafting my own hair conditioner is my next favourite thing after making soap! This wonderful ingredient is a cationic self emulsifier and conditioner suitable for both hair and skin care and anhydrous scrubs. Conditioning Emulsifier 50 is a combination of a conditioning compound, which is derived from the natural plant oil Colza (Canola), and a fatty alcohol (Cetearyl Alcohol) plus the addition of Butylene Glycol which imparts extra moisture and emolliency to our product. Both of our BTMS products impart emollience and a cushioned after feel to your formulations and both have the ability to emulsify silicones very effectively.
If you have dry hair, you may find this is a better ingredient for your Hair Conditioners - the number 50 refers to the quantity of the active quaternery compound - this is double the BTMS 25 activity. As it also contains Butylene Glycol this means it is also more helpful for dry hair. If you have oily hair, you will probably prefer the BTMS 25.
Conditioning Emulsifier 50 will give your home-formulated conditioners lubricity and static control, offering excellent wet combing and detangling. From the basic formulation, you can then start to build your own specialised Conditioners by including Hydrolyzed Proteins, Herbal Extracts, dl Panthenol and small amounts of Fixed Oils (such as Jojoba, Coconut Oil) to make a really fabulous Hair Conditioner. By choosing which ingredients you add, you can tailor your Conditioner to suit your own hair. Due to its being extremely mild, it is excellent for leave-in conditioners as well as solid conditioning products.
It is however, NOT SUITABLE for use with Veg-Emulse as these two ingredients are not compatible. This is because Veg-Emulse is not compatible with cationic ingredients, and it is this 'quat' that does its magic in your hair.
