SCI is a surfactant (first ingredient) so yes this is a syndet bar.

Hydrogenated vegetable oil - a thickener and longer shelf life than original oil

Polyglyceryl - 4 Laurate gives slip

Water

Fragrance (Parfum) preservative

Glycerin a humectant

Fragrance - scent

Zinc Oxide - coloring? filler?

Citric Acid to balance ph I would guess in this

Coconut oil

Shea Butter

Galactoarabinan - sugar from a tree used for hydrating

Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate - chelator

Mandelic Acid - AHA usually I thought for anti aging?


 I find it interesting that Zinc Oxide comes before Coconut oil in the list. I dont believe this list is accurate in the way we are meant to list from largest amount of an ingredient to smallest amount of an ingredient.  I am pretty sure there would/should be less citric than Shea for example.


If you know how to make syndet shampoo bars this would be fairly easy to make however if you are only doing this to save $'s I will let you know that its a whole different ball game and the learning curve is steep and expensive!  Ask most of us how we know!
