In this kit, you will find the ingredients to easily make a great emulsifier system.
The emulsifier base of glyceryl stearate, Cetearyl alcohol, and sodium stearoyl lactylate provides a very mild, efficient, and easy-to-use emulsifier system for oil-in-water emulsions. The balanced ratio of the components allows the formation of a liquid-crystalline gel network in the aqueous phase. This emulsifying wax thus ensures a high affinity to the skin and a pleasant, silky skin feel. The emulsifier system can be used for almost all oil-in-water emulsions. The addition of a co-emulsifier is not necessary! It tolerates a wide pH range (pH 4-8) and can handle up to 50% oil by weight. The ingredients are all of plant origin. Photo instructions on how to make it can be found below. All you need in addition is a small pot or beaker, a spoon or spatula for stirring, and a sheet of baking paper.
Usage concentration:
Lotions: 2-4 %
Creams: 6-8 %
