    I’m in Beijing, China. I am working on getting this together and have done soft launch to friends, who like the simple version of the product. I am trying to make it more in line with what I believe would be an excellent and unique product. I have a background in herbal medicine (including Chinese medicine) with over 20 years of practice experience and prior formulating experience, but this is the first time I have tried to product a product like this, so I am floundering a little. :)

    Thanks Bobzchemist! I appreciate your comments and I feel a little less frustrated now.

    I have looked into micro-emulsifiers, but find little help there as far as specific names of products. Also, I read something that stated that these ingredients are primarily used for cleansing products because of their effect on the skin.

    Do you have any suggestions on which micro-emulsifiers would be best to try?

    Also, my numbers above are slightly off, like by one decimal point in most cases…oops :(
