  You have an answer inside your question, it is the time that causes it. Emulsions are not stable by nature. The question is not whether it separates or not it’s “when it separates?”. It’s however not good if it separated too quickly. If it’s not a general question, post your formula with % and maybe I will be able to tell why that particular emulsion separates too quickly.
