"If I add fragrance, do I need to add any stabilizers to this base? And if so, what kind, and how many (ounces), because I know this base can only hold 5% additives."

Click Here To View 1 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer We recommend adding no more than 2% extra oils (including fragrance and modifiers) to the base. You will need to add the EO & FO Modifier to modify the fragrance oil. If your fragrance contains vanilla, you will also add the Vanilla Color Stabilizer - Lotion & Washes.

"Instead of using fo eo modifier can I use emulsifying wax "

Click Here To View 1 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer We do not recommend using Emulsifying Wax as a substitute. EO & FO Modifier solublizes (aka dissolves) fragrance and essential oils into water based formulations. Emulsifying Wax binds oil and water together, and therefore is not a good substitute for this product because it doesn't perform the same way.

Staff Answer Bubble Up can act as a thickener in some cases. Try adding more body wash or even some distilled water to try and thin it out. If adding water, we recommend adding more preservative.

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer You can add extracts and oils to this base, but be aware that oils can cut down on the lather produced by this base. We have not tried adding aloe vera gel to this base, so it's something you would need to test. You will need to add more preservative if adding more than 5% additives, which is not recommended.

Staff Answer You would be able to add these additives, I would recommend making a small test batch using less than 5% total additives. Oils can cut down on the lather produced by the base, so I would personally use the water soluble extract. Crafter's Choice extracts come preserved, so you will not need to add more preservative.

This is what I have calculated: mix 0.48 oz fragrance with 0.24 oz vanilla stabiler = 0.72 new mixture. Mix the 0.72 oz with 2.88 oz of FO/EO modifier. Then place 0.72 oz of the final mixture into the body wash. Is this correct? Thanks."

Staff Answer Shea 50 is a water-soluble ingredient so it can be added to this body wash. This base can take up to 5% additives. After that, you would need to add additional preservative. If making an 8 oz. bottle, 5% would equal 12 ml or 0.40 oz.

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer We are sorry to hear this happened. This is a good reason to always test each new fragrance in your product. First, make sure you are only adding between 1-2% fragrance. We do not recommended adding water because this can cause your product to mold. You could try adding a small amount of glycerin or cocamidopropyl betaine (Bubble Up) to the body wash. We recommend adding no more than 2% of either of these ingredients.

Staff Answer Ingredients would include both liquid and powder. The body wash base is designed with the right amount of preservative for the additives in the product. If more than 5% of any additives are added, it will compromise the current preservative system. Adding mica should not be an issue.
