Oil in Clay Masks
So I’m starting to formulate some clay masks which I know have plenty of potential problems ahead but let’s start with this one:
Do I need oil in my mask? What is the benefit, other than the benefits of the oil itself? If I don’t use any oil, do I still need the emulsifier for the essential oils and/or product stability? Should I just nix the oil and use some Xanthan gum
and call it a day??
I want this product to be less viscous than most clay masks so I can put it in a bottle and get it through a lotion pump so I’m thinking more liquid is good but should it just be a lot of water or does the oil bring anything to the table in this case? I’m thinking of using Grapeseed but am open to other cost effective suggestions, except coconut oil. No coconut oil.
Thanks!
