  salty water

  Posted by Anonymous on August 3, 2017 at 5:07 am

  Hello,

  I recently was experimenting with salty water based natural lotion (not production). Was looking for formulas but could not find anything.
  If I simplify and say I have 
  salty water 75%
  emulsifier like ritamulse 8%
  any base oil 17%
  In which direction should I move and what should I use to be able to mix salty water with oil?

  Im a beginner and only learning and experimenting, so Im sorry if I ask a strange question.

  What is the absolute reason you need to use “salty water?” Keep in mind that many emulsifiers are unstable with levels of salts and it could be a source of instability.
