    Hi everyone,
    I need suggestions for a good W/O LIQUID NON-IONIC emulsifier. 
     I am mainly after stabilizing a lotion with 25% active ZnO, but i don’t need to increase the viscosity dramatically, hence, i am after a liquid emulsifier

    Viscosity of w/o emulsions doesn’t depend on whether emulsifier is liquid or solid. It’s possible to achieve drastically different viscosity with the same emulsifier. % of water for example can have an impact on viscosity. You will be able to get more help if you post the formula and explain what is the issue with it.
