“Re-emulsifying” a finished product
I recently made a new batch of products but I miscalculated the oil to water ratio, and now the water is too much while oil is little.
I’m wondering if I can heat up some oil and emulsifier, then slightly heat up the finished products and then emulsify again, and add in some more preservatives.
Will it work?

I don’t want to add in thickener as that would does not go with my formulation

That might work although you’ll probably have to heat the main batch up to ~70C to break the emulsion and reform it . You’ll also have to re-add some preservative and fragrance. But it really depends on what else is in your formula.

Well, maybe. It would be better to make a second batch of equal size but with the mistakes reversed, then mix the two.

That is just it! Thank you so much
