Nettle hydrosol — 15 ml
Glycerin — 6 ml
DL-Panthenol — 3 g
Chamomile extract — 3 ml
Aloe extract — 1 ml
Cosmetic preservative — 1 ml

Preparation process

Distilled water is combined with nettle hydrosol to form the aqueous base of the formulation. Glycerin is incorporated and mixed until evenly distributed. DL-Panthenol is then introduced into the water phase and blended until completely dissolved.

Chamomile extract is added and the formulation is mixed until homogeneous. Aloe extract is incorporated and the mixture is blended until a stable gel texture is formed. At the final stage the preservative is added and the formulation is mixed until a stable cosmetic gel suitable for formulation development and manufacturing is obtained.
