    Hi all.  Kindly share advise on preventing anhydrous hair formulation from ‘cracking’ after being packaged.

    Also would appreciate guidance in reducing tackiness in aqueous hair cream (use dimethicone perhaps?? Thoughts on adding low HLB emulsifying wax to solve the tackiness issue?  

    Would also like suggestions on making both these products heat stable for shipping in/to hot and humid climate areas.  Tx much!

    You might be able to get better assistance if you share the formula, but I will say that adding dimethicone should help with reducing tackiness.
