Usage:

Dosage: Start with 1-2 drops per 100 g of base and adjust as necessary. Due to its high concentration, use sparingly.

Recipe: Bright Green Apple Body Wash

Create an invigorating, brightly coloured body wash that is gentle on the skin and visually appealing.

Ingredients:

80 g Liquid Castile Base (or other mild surfactant base); 15 g Distilled water; 3 g Vegetable Glycerin; 1 g Green Apple Fragrance Oil; 1 g Preservative (e.g., Liquid Germall Plus), optional; Green Apple Gel Colorant (3-5 drops, or to desired shade).

Instructions for preparation:

Stir very gently to combine without creating excessive foam.

Adjust the Viscosity: If the mixture is too thin, you may gently heat a small portion of the water phase and add a small amount of salt (sodium chloride) to thicken the surfactant base. Add salt gradually until the desired thickness is achieved.

Introduce the Colour: Add the Green Apple Gel Colorant drop by drop, stirring gently after each addition, until the body wash reaches your desired bright green shade.

Add the Active and Fragrance: Incorporate the Green Apple Fragrance Oil and the preservative (if using). Stir slowly and thoroughly to ensure even distribution.

Allow the product to rest for 24 hours to let any trapped air bubbles dissipate before use.

Recommendations:

Dosage Control: Always add the gel colorant very slowly. The colour intensity will increase significantly with just one extra drop.

Foam: Use gentle stirring techniques to minimize foaming, which can make it hard to gauge the final colour accurately.

Preservation: Although some bases are somewhat alkaline, if you add water, a broad-spectrum preservative is recommended to prevent microbial growth.
