  are c/c triglyceride, coco caprate, alkyl benzoate, plant oils, EOs miscible ?

  If I add above ingredients together then will the oil mix be homogenous and stable throughout the shelf life or will I need something extra?

  Depending on what is meant by “plant oils”, you should be OK. Go heavy on the C12-15 alkyl benzoate if using a high level of essential oils.

    10% - (argan oil, jojoba liquid wax ester, red raspberry oil, mango seed oil, squalene)

    3% - lemongrass essential oil, bergamot essential oil, mixed tocopherol

    20% - oil soluble sunscreen pre made base

    27% - capric/ caprylic triglyceride

    —————-

    60% done

    —————-

    can you please recommend how to go about the remaining 40% with any 1 or 2 or all of these following ingredients to make the system homogeneous?

    C12-15 alkyl benzoate

    isopropyl mystirate

    coco caprylate
