BTMS-50 is a gentle, plant-derived conditioning and emulsifying agent (solid pastilles). It adds slip, softness, and a silky feel to both skin and hair. We use it in lotions and conditioners to create a plush, creamy texture that leaves hair soft, detangled, and manageable.

Why We Use It
BTMS-50 provides excellent conditioning while remaining gentle and skin-friendly. In lotions, it helps emulsify oils for a smooth, non-greasy feel. In conditioners, it boosts slip, detangling, and protection without heavy buildup. Compared to BTMS-25, BTMS-50 delivers more conditioning at lower use levels, which keeps formulas elegant and lightweight.
