@JackDerrington, thanks for sharing the updates and pictures. It has been interesting seeing the transformation.

@JackDerrington, what’s the temp of the cream when you seal the jars?
-
@JackDerrington I almost wonder if you have too much Shea butter. It looks “pasty” on your fingers

I’d like to know as well. I have a Silverson too (L4RT) that I’m about ready to give to a good home. Always sounds like it’s on its last leg…

Sorry, I didn’t see the link @Pharma sent…

@touba426 are you trying to make white phenyl?
-
@touba426, I found this video on YouTube that might be useful.

@cheekychooky, re-post your formula as @MarkBroussard indicated so we can have a dialogue and let us know how your formula turned out.

@Fekher, have you actually tried the beeswax/borax combo yourself? I think I tried it once about 20 years ago and ended up with a hot mess. Never tried it again.

@EVchem been there, done that.

@bsingle - why not post your formula along with the percentages and include your process. I bet you’d get more suggestions.

I purchased this incubator model on eBay

Where are you located and what quantity are you looking to purchase?

Good points @aperson

I sure don’t. Sorry

The trade name is Purasal NH/COS. I believe you need a prescription to purchase a cream containing this ingredient, although I did find it on Amazon through an online pharmacy and was able to put it in my shopping cart. Hmm…

I was introduced to it recently when a rep from Bumble and Bumble came to our spa to introduce their Scalp Detox product. Lots of cracking upon application. It was kinda cool.

This botanical complex may be of interest. They also carry calendula as a single extract as well.

@goldie, I’m afraid I don’t have any recommendations to replace these items.

Hi @goldie, I’d agree the 1% line is probably the fragrance. Look up the ingredients to determine their function in the formula. I hadn’t heard of many of them, so I looked them up for my own knowledge. Many of the ingredients listed before the fragrance are emollients, skin softening agents, and humectants. Everything after fragrance seems to be emulsion stabilizers, viscosity enhancers, various preservatives, etc. The last 3 ingredients are components that occur naturally in fragrance. Once you determine the function of the ingredients you’ll need to find out the usage rate and take it from there. Perhaps some of the chemists’ll chime in.
I recently stumbled upon a YouTube video titled “Cosmetic Formulating - Create A Formula From An LOI” by some guy named Perry
I think he might know a thing or two (wink) Check it out. -
@MarkBroussard, of course I’m assuming your tables are quite large…
