    Add in a little argan oil, Vitamin E Acetate, IPM, IPP, caprylic/capric triglyceride. The list is just endless including the lipo soluble numerous extracts.

    @Chemist_Ahmed It is time to do a little research of your own. When you have come up with a formula we can make suggestions but nobody is going to give you a formula with percentages.

    Please refer to the following thread for advice on requesting help in this forum.

    Depends on the properties/benchmark you have in mind. Second most important would be the budget cost which in certain regions including mine is unfortunately the starting point.
