    I’m so sorry to hijack this post but can’t for the life of me find out how to put a post up.

    I’m in need of help if anyone can give me some

    So I’m very new to formulating and have been trying different formulas for a curl gel but when I add the oil phase to my water phase it goes a creamy colour

    Water phase

    Water

    Aloe vera juice

    Vegetable glycerin

    Xantham gum

    Polysorbate 20

    Nancide

    Grapefruit extract

    Oil phase

    Jojoba oil

    Baobab oil

    Broccoli seed oil

    Vitamin e

    What am I doing wrong please help

    Thank you so much for replying it means alot ketchito

    Yep definitely new to this , I wasn’t aware of oil not being in gel formulations my research on different curly hair gels do have oils in them ( grapeseed oil &hydrolyzed protiens)

    I do have a PVP/VA copolymer

    Would that work in this formulation if I took out the oil based products

    Many thanks
