  nail serum oil based

  Posted by MariaSibon on December 20, 2022 at 10:09 am

  Dear all,

  I have a new project of creating a nail repair/serum. I need to have high quantity of oils but need to dissolve some water based active ingredients.

  I already tried a formulation leading to creamy gel with Cosmedia Ace but can take up to 25-30% oils and I am not happy with the outcome.

  I am new with oleogels. Is there an oil thickener product that can emulsify a small quantity of water phase ? I came across with Sucragel series that need to investigate but  would appreciate if someone has any suggestions to help me start-up and source ingredients more easily. Ideally cold-phase processing but not a must.

  My most reachable suppliers are BASF and Clariant, could not identify any ingredients close to what I want form them.

  My base formulations is 
  vegetable oils at least 50%
  Water phase 
  Thickener/emulsifier
  Tocopherol
  Tocopherol Acetate
  Hydrolysed Keratin/protein
  Allantoin
  Panthenol

  Ideal viscosity is low, like thin gel-to- milk lotion

  Thank you in advance
