  • I chose 1 gram because I have 1000 grams and want to make it last….there was so instructions or manual I could find on the internet on how to use suga d musle, I searched everywhere…what is the standard usage per oz of distilled water? do you have a link? I was using 8oz of water! you said 1.6 oz to 1 gram of Suga Mulse wont suffice? Suga mulse was pretty expensive…. so how much should I use?

    The best bet here is to look at your problem from first principles again. 
    Poly Suga-Mulse D9 (herein ‘PSMD9’) has HLB of 12-14 so falls into the realm of emulsifying agents/detergents, and may or may not foam. 20% oils is quite high, so that would need to be addressed with an appropriate amount of PSMD9 - how did you decide on 1g?
  • OK I want to mix water with essential oils and sell them!

    What type of product are you trying to make? You have several threads started on the forum for the same problem but at no point do you mention what you are trying to make. You need to provide this information along with a complete formula to get any real help.
  • I cannot ask what kind of pigment to use without offending you sir?

    what the best pigment to put into the liquid sir?

    Try out the advice given first instead of reiterating your question. You have asked this question a few times in various forms and have not provided sufficient information.
    You have said yourself that the mixture is not fully emulsified, so it is less likely to be white versus a complete emulsion.
    Also, mixers are inexpensive. You can try mixing emulsions with a hand blender which costs around £10 here in UK for a cheap one.
    Please provide more information going forwards or you will not receive any valuable answers. You have to help us to help you.

    Lecithin comes in a variety of grades, from fairly cheap to really expensive.
    Effective regarding what? You’re comparing apples with oranges.

    For mixing oil with water and then adding titanium dioxide with it and spray it out of a foam pump (same as the ones used for dishwashing)

    Sometimes you can off-set a yellow color with a little Violet #2

    what color will it turn into?

  • @Galaxy1111 You will not be able to dissolve pepper, therefore it will always block your spray nozzle. You are not making a sprayable formulation. You may also find that it blocks other packaging such as pumps much like an exfoliator in a scrub would do. You need to change your formulation; either remove the pepper, or thicken it and put it in a bottle or tube with flip-top cap.

    wait…why cant i dissolve pepper is it impossible to do so?

    Pepper will not dissolve. You are wasting your time.

  • Benz3ne said:

    What ‘powder’ are you referring to? Should it have fully dissolved and if not, why not?
    All we currently know is that it is an oil with powder, that is then used to make an oil/water mixture and that you’re assuming that it is not correctly emulsified, but that the powder not being dissolved is possibly the issue.
    I’m afraid we’ll need a little more information to help.

    i am heating up peppermint oil with cayenne pepper…..also there distilled water and polysugad9mulse in it……why is it not mixing…is there another emulsifier that works better than this ? poly suga mulse d9

  • Are you able to dissolve the solid oil in a liquid before you emulsify your formula? If you have chosen suitable emulsifiers, then they should keep the particle size of your oil small enough that you don’t notice any solids once it’s cooled.

    Spray nozzles are all very similar designs - if your product clogs one, then it is probably not a sprayable product, unfortunately.

    what does that mean to dissolve the oil into a liquid? i thought it was impossible to dissolve oil into water without an emulsifier…right now im using polysugamulsed9….i put powdered cayanne pepper into the water oil mix with the suga mulse and put it in a pressure cooker and heated it up for an hour and after cooling it still did not dissolve.
