    made a body spray with mica shimmer.  but the shimmer keeps falling.  Not sure what to use to help with the keeping the mica floating.  I was thinking about a Aqua SF-1 or seppic EMT-10 at about 0.2-0.5%.  Any suggestions?

    Making a body mist spray.  Just not sure how I should have the order of ingredients. I know this doesn’t equal 100%.  I just want to know what is the best order of addition.

    Water-26.8% 
    carbomer 7.5%
    PG 2.0%
    NaOH-0.75%
    Alcohol -50%
    shimmer and extracts.
