  • Mixing Squalane with polar oil

    Hi ,

    I have some TEC (20%) mixed with inorganic sun screen (15%)and I attempted to use Squalane (65%) to finish my formulation. I have observed a small settling on the bottom of the formulation . Of course Squalane is a non polar oil while TEC is. Is that the reason of the observed settling ? I will try to use a thickener so solve the issue..any other suggestions ?
