Cosmetic Recipe: Gentle Baby Soothing Lotion

Create a nurturing and calming lotion perfect for a baby's delicate skin, featuring the Children's Cosmetic Complex.

Instructions for Preparation:

1. Sanitize: Ensure all equipment, containers, and utensils are thoroughly sanitized.
2. Phase A: In a heat-resistant beaker, combine distilled water and vegetable glycerin. Heat this phase to 70-75°C (158-167°F) using a double boiler or controlled heat.
3. Phase B: In a separate heat-resistant beaker, combine sweet almond oil, shea butter, emulsifying wax NF, and cetyl alcohol. Heat this phase to 70-75°C (158-167°F) until all ingredients are completely melted and uniform.
4. Emulsification: Slowly pour Phase B into Phase A while continuously stirring with a stick blender or high-shear mixer. Maintain stirring until a stable emulsion forms and the mixture begins to thicken.
5. Cooling: Continue stirring occasionally as the lotion cools down to approximately 35-40°C (95-104°F). This slow cooling helps stabilize the emulsion.
6. Phase C: Once the lotion has cooled, add the Children's Cosmetic Complex, Vitamin E, and your chosen preservative. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated and the lotion is smooth and homogenous.
7. Packaging: Transfer the finished lotion into clean, sterilized containers.

Recommendations for Application:

• Dosage: The recommended inclusion rate for the Children's Cosmetic Complex is 3-10% in cosmetic formulations. For sensitive skin and baby products, starting at 5% and adjusting as needed is a good practice.
• Integration: Due to its water solubility, integrate the complex into the cool-down phase of your formulation to preserve its active ingredients and prevent degradation from excessive heat.
• Compatibility: Always conduct a small-batch test to ensure compatibility with other ingredients in your formula, especially if using a new combination.
• Storage: Store the finished product in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and heat. The Children's Cosmetic Complex itself should be stored in a cool, dark place in a tightly sealed container to maintain its stability and efficacy.
• Shelf Life: Adhere to the shelf life dictated by your chosen preservative system and good manufacturing practices.
• Patch Test: Before widespread use, especially on delicate skin, perform a patch test on a small, inconspicuous area to check for any sensitivities or reactions.
• Safety: While this complex is designed for gentle skin, always avoid direct contact with eyes. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Keep out of reach of children.
