    A normal o/w emulsion with a small amount of a fatty alcohol (cetyl/stearyl/cetostearyl) gives your emulsion the LC properties. But it’s always better to read and research before doing something new and interesting, makes the experimentation all too thrilling and easy to understand.

    cheers
