4. Pour PHASE A into PHASE B and stick blend until homogenous. The amount of time will vary depending on batch size. |
5. Let the product cool in the fridge, stirring every few minutes to ensure it remains a smooth texture and cools quickly. |
6.When the product has reached 40c remove from the fridge and add PHASE C. Use a thermometer, temperatures are critical! Stir THOROUGHLY!!!! You want to ensure that the phase has been mixed throughout the entire product. |

NOTE: I strongly advise against purchasing ingredients on Amazon, unless it’s from Making Cosmetics or TKB Trading storefront.
I have included my suppliers for you to cross-check INCI + CAS# to source the materials globally.
Please remember emulsifiers with the same INCI but different CAS# can result in a different viscosity of your final product.
