DEFINITION |
Natural thickener combination with sunflower wax and sodium alginate (alginic acid) to make stable all-round lotions. This ICE product is best combined with an emulsifier, such as polysorbate 20 for example, to get a smooth lotion. Alginate is a natural polysaccharide (sugar from brown algae) that has a large capacity of absorbing water. Hydrophile / lipophile balanced to ensure the highest viscosity. |

USAGE |
It can be used add 4-10% to either cold, warm or hot water and blend (stick blender) until smooth. Works better in warm-to-hot than cold water. By adding an emulsifier the product will have a smoother consistency, without an emulsifier it will be grainy and not uniform. By adding additional oils and active ingredients to the blend the cold emulsion can be easily personalized to your specific needs. |
