Recipe for lightweight cream with Dimethicone 350 cst for smooth skin feel
Purified water 72 ml
Cosmetic base oil 14 ml
Emulsifier 6 g
Dimethicone 350 cst 6 ml
Liquid aloe extract 1 ml
Preservative 1 g
To prepare the cream purified water is placed in a working container and heated until warm. In a separate vessel base oil and emulsifier are combined and heated until homogeneous. The oil mixture is gradually added into the water phase with continuous mixing until a stable emulsion forms. During cooling dimethicone is incorporated with continued mixing until evenly distributed. Liquid aloe extract is then added and mixed until uniform. Finally preservative is incorporated and mixing continues until homogeneous. The finished cream is left to stabilize before filling.
The formulation is intended for B2B use and provides stability, reproducibility and versatility in modern skin and hair care development.
