thickening a texture+ PPG-20 Methyl Glucose Ether
hello fellas
i tried a small batch of the next formula
: Water, Shorea (Sal) Butter, Astrocaryum Tucuma Seed Butter, Limnanthes Alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil, Cetearyl Alcohol (and) Polysorbate 60, Stearic Acid, Phenoxyethanol (and) Caprylyl Glycol (and) Sorbic Acid, Tocopheroli let it sit outside the fridge and notice it became thiner and runny and there some separation of the water is there a way to make it thicker?by adding more of specific ingredient from the list or another ingredient who does not listed above?
another question i have is about the ppg-20 is it worth it ?to add it to the formula for long lasting fragrance?
thank u in advance

Emulsifiers insufficient.

To make it thicker I would try adding more cetearyl alcohol and perhaps polysorbate 60.

use 0.5% Simugel INS 100 (Seppic) and you will solve low emulsifier problem and add viscosity.https://www.ulprospector.com/documents/1174263.pdf?bs=1432&b=65720&st=1&sl=51021479&crit=a2V5d29yZDpbU0lNVUdFTCBJTlMgXQ%3d%3d&k=SIMUGEL|INS|&r=na&ind=personalcare

Belassi why you think the emulsifiers are insufficient?
Obviously, because it is separating. Cetearyl alchol is a secondary emulsifier only. -
thank you Belassi
i think the amount was not right
does emulsifiers works great in other formulas i tried
