BTMS-25 versus BTMS-50. What's the difference?
BTMS-25 is Cetearyl Alcohol and Behentrimonium Methosulfate. BTMS-25 contains 25% BTMS (Behentrimonium Methosulfate).
BTMS-50 also contains 50% Behentrimonium Methosulfate. It does not have Cetearyl Alcohol and instead has Cetyl Alcohol and Behenyl Alcohol. BTMS-50 is a premium conditioning emulsifier, yielding top quality products with outstanding detangling and wet comb properties, which is why Wixy Soap uses this in their shampoo bars and kits. - BTMS-25 can be substituted for BTMS-50 in conditioners but you may find it slightly less conditioning as the BTMS-50.
