  • Chamois Cream - increasing “durability / longevity”

    Hi Everyone,

    I have a new puzzle - I have been working on a chamois cream for cyclists - the feedback from the first round of samples has been that it does not last as long as the competitors’s products such as dznuts and asos. Of-course it has to be natural… the formulation is as follows:
    Aqua (Water) 54.75

    Cetyl Alcohol 9.00
    Glyceryl Stearate           6.00
    Lanolin 6.00
    Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride     5.00
    Glycerin 5.00
    Propanediol 4.00
    Isoamyl Laurate 4.00
     Cera Alba (Bees Wax) 2.00
    Polysorbate 20 2.00
    Benzyl Alcohol & Salicylic Acid & Glycerin & Sorbic Acid 1.00
    Leptospermum Scoparium Mel 0.50
    CALENDULA OIL? 0.25
    Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) 0.20
    Tetrasodium EDTA 0.10
    Sodium Hydroxide 0.10
    MANUKA OIL 0.05

    Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A) 0.05

    Any thoughts?
    Cheers
    Sarah
