@Pharma
Thank you. So prolonged exposure will do the damage? -
@ngarayeva001, 15% of the whole recipe should be shea butter right?
-
@Belassi, anything else as a substitute besides aloe vera? The product has to remain vegan and free of coconut and its derivatives.

@ngarayeva001, I tried it without the zinc oxide and it still went grainy. The purpose of this product is to ease diaper rash.

@ngarayeva001 I use 6.5g shea, 5.6g castor wax, 10.6g almond oil, 2.9g zinc oxide and 2.9g of arrowroot. The total weight is 28.5g. Should I reduce Shea butter to half or quarter of what I use at present?

@Pharma
It remains soft and creamy at home. The moment I take it on a trip in summer, things stop being rosy. I tried mango butter and it went grainy as well. I will reformate and prevent it from melting. -
@Belassi
Thank you. It makes sense. I will reduce shea butter and increase the wax and see how it turns out.Please check this link https://www.formulatorsampleshop.com/Softisan-378-p/fssb30044.htm
It says “prevents graininess with butters”. What’s your take on that?

@Pharma
Let me rephrase my question/problem. What can I do to prevent shea butter from going grainy when the finished product softens and solidifies in summer? I have reformulated the recipe with different amounts of shea butter and even at the lowest quantity, it gets grainy.
