Title: Advances in shampoo formulation: synergism of anionic/ cationic/zwitterionic surfactant ternary system 
Abstract: There is a rule among cosmetic formulators of not mixing an anionic surfactant with a cationic surfactant in the same formulation, especially if it’s a clear product, since this interaction will result in the appearance of turbidity (precipitation). Nevertheless, vast reports show not only the possible but also synergistic combination of surfactants with opposed charge, conferring unique properties to the final product. The aim of this study is to evaluate the use of a co-surfactant as a novel tool for maintaining high levels of both cationic and anionic surfactants mixed in the same product, without precipitation. Not only we found this possible at certain rates, but also attributes of the system such as viscosity, detergency and foam stability, were improved.
Key Words: Synergy, Anionic, Cationic, Zwitterionic, Surfactant and Mixed micelle
