Can a shampoo with Cedar essence be made clear?

formula:
R/Salicylic acid 6g
Cedar essence 15g
after lauryl sulfate 20g
propylene glycol 15g
water AD 300 g

FAC shampoo

Answer

Two problems can occur: Salicylic acid may be soluble; Cedar Essence certainly not. Start with the preparation of a concentrated solution of NaLS and 100 g water + propylene glycol + 10% cetomacrogol. Add salicylic acid and cedar essence. Both should be solved at this stage. If both are dissolved can slowly be diluted with water and hope that everything remains solved??
