[3] The ingredients in topical gel formulation can be broadly categorized into four types: gelator, solvent, drug, and excipients.

Cocamidopropyl betaine is used as a foam booster in shampoos. [4] It is a medium-strength surfactant also used in bath products like hand soaps.It is also used in cosmetics as an emulsifying agent and thickener, and to reduce the irritation that purely ionic surfactants would cause.
Surfactants can make up as much as 50 percent of the shower gel content, with the remaining proportion being made up of a combination of water and ingredients to thicken, preserve, emulsify, add fragrance, and color. [6] [7] Multiple surfactants are often used to achieve desired product qualities. A primary surfactant can provide good foaming ...
Sodium cocoate is a mixture of fatty acid salts of coconut oil that is used in some soaps. [1] Sodium cocoate is produced by hydrolysis of the ester linkages in coconut oil with sodium hydroxide, a strong base. The CAS number for sodium cocoate is 61789-31-9.
