Your opinions about my formula.
Hello everyone. New here. I want to make a “safe” daily face moisturizer without petroleum, mineral and paraffins with raw beeswax and honey. Here is my emulsion. Is it good or bad? Thank you
83% water
3% glycerin
1% honey
1% allantoin
1% betaine monohydrate
5% polawax
1% beeswax
3% shea butter
1% preservative (phenoxyethanol/ethylhexyglycerin)
1% vitamin b complex -

Well… errr… there are several different Polawax varieties available. They’re commonly PEGylated and PPGylated fatty acid derivatives. PEG and PPG are derived from mineral oil, so is your preservative and sometimes certain B vitamins such as niacinamide too. Hence, your claim doesn’t add up.Mix it, try it and see if it’s stable and how it performs

my polawax is polawax gp200. Also, my real question is if this formula is ok for everyday hydration. I made a 100ml recipe and after 3-4 months seem was stable without bacteria or smell. Also, i tested it on my face and seems was ok with a good feeling without irritations. -
Okay, so you tested it for a long time on your own face. Wouldn’t it be up to YOU to tell US whether or not this formulation is any good? I mean, how the heck are we supposed to know how YOU feel after applying that cream on YOUR face for MONTHS. At least show us a before-after picture! :smiley:
