Abstract

Abstract A mild shampoo formulation contains an anionic surfactant, an imidazolinium or sulphosuccinate derivative, an amine oxide derivative and an ethoxylated dihydric or polyhydric alcohol derivative. The combination of amine oxide derivative and dihydric or polyhydric alcohol derivative improved the mildness and increases the viscosity of the formulation.
