    Hello!
    I am working on a shower oil and I need help improving my recipe to make it more luxurious. I want the shower oil do be hydrating & conditioning.
    I am following a very basic recipe that you can see below:

    Phase A:
    Lumorol K5229 - 57%

    Phase B
    Apricot Kernel Oil - 15%
    Extra Virgin Olive Oil - 15%
    Sweet Almond Oil - 5%
    Caprylic/Capric Trigyceride - 15%

    Phase C
    Fragrance Oil - 2%
    Vitamin E - 1%

    Any suggestion on how to take this recipe to the next level and create a luxury shower oil? Any guidance is welcomes & greatly appreciate.

    Make sure your formula totals 100%.

    Substitute Olive oil with Hydrogenated Ethylhexyl Olivate, Hydrogenated Olive Oil Unsaponifiables known as Natrasil by a certain supplier. It will have a much lighter feel than olive oil and will leave skin feeling soft.

    If you are targeting the luxury market, your products need to not just hold a promise, they must manifest a myth, and make the intangible brand believably tangible. And I would suggest you redefine the shower oil category and set new high standards. This elevates your followers to a higher level of existence and price.
