Carbomer
Hello all!
I have recently discovered carbomer and was going to attempt to use it in a face mask type application. I am pretty sure I have the gel part of it down, but I was wondering what to add or how to make it into a drying/ peeling mask sort of thing. My background in chemistry is fairly limited but any advice helps. Thanks in advance for all the suggestions!

I think most peeling masks use polyvinyl alcohol. Going more of the clay mask route seems to be simpler for a beginner formulator. There are lots of formulas available for clay masks on the internet. I don’t make masks though, so I’m sure an expert will chime in if I’m wrong! I do make hair products, and there are lots of fun things to do with carbomer there if you get tired of masks?
