Review: High quality - Pure, high quality powder, no impurities.
Review: Amazing Thickener - I've used CMC powder in the past as a thickener for liquid soaps. To be quite honest, it didn't produce the nicest consistency on its own. Used as the only thickener in a water-thin solution, it can get a little slimy. However, when I combined it with a little sodium chloride (yes, table salt) solution, it produced a nice thin gel that was easy to dispense with a pump and didn't immediately run off your hands into the sink. As far as I can tell, this powder is exactly the same as the one I've had sitting on my shelf for the past 5 or 6 years. It performs identically in terms of solubility and usage rate. It probably has about a million and one uses as a thickener for everything from soaps and cosmetics to sanitizers and ceramic glazes. They use huge bags of this stuff as an industrial drilling lubricant, so I'm guessing it's dirt cheap if you buy it in bulk. Honestly, though, a tiny bit goes a very long way (it's powerful stuff), so don't buy a giant bag of it. Great to have around the house for various uses.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Working fine in soap
*by V***R on September 18, 2024*

This has been working fine in my soaps as a thickener. Seems a little pricey for cosmetic grade in this small amount, but it does the job. Label features a batch number, packing date & expiration date (of almost 2 years out). Since it’s not mentioned in the product details, I can confirm that this is made in India.
