Instructions for Preparation:
- Sanitization: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment (beakers, stirring rods, pump bottles) with isopropyl alcohol and allow them to air dry completely.
- Prepare Phase A (Gel Base): In a clean beaker, slowly sprinkle carbomer over the surface of the distilled water while constantly stirring to avoid clumps. Allow it to hydrate for 15-20 minutes, then stir again.
- Neutralize and Form Gel: Add glycerin to the carbomer-water mixture. While stirring, slowly add Triethanolamine (TEA) solution (or 10% Sodium Hydroxide solution) drop by drop until the mixture thickens into a clear, homogenous gel. Continue stirring until fully gelled.
- Add Phase B (Active & Decorative): Once the gel is fully formed and clear, add the Gold Lurex Glitter. Stir well to ensure the glitter is evenly dispersed throughout the gel.
- Add Optional Fragrance and Preservative: Add the optional fragrance oil and the preservative. Stir thoroughly for at least 1-2 minutes to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Check pH (Recommended): Test the pH of your finished gel. For body products, an ideal pH range is typically 5.0-6.0. Adjust if necessary by adding a tiny drop of diluted lactic acid to lower pH or diluted baking soda solution to raise pH.
- Bottle: Carefully transfer the finished body shimmer gel into a clean, sterile pump bottle or jar.
Recommendations for Application and Use:
- Glitter Concentration: The 5% concentration of Gold Lurex Glitter provides a noticeable and brilliant shimmer. You can adjust this percentage based on the desired level of sparkle, from a subtle glow to an intense dazzle.
- Dispersion: Ensure the glitter is thoroughly mixed into the gel base to prevent clumping and ensure an even application. Continue to gently stir before bottling if the glitter tends to settle.
- Application: Apply a small amount of the "Golden Hour" body shimmer gel to clean, dry skin. Rub gently until absorbed, allowing the glitter to catch the light. Best used on arms, legs, décolletage, or any area you wish to highlight.
- Storage: Store the body shimmer gel in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain its stability and prevent the glitter from settling excessively.
- Layering: For a more intense glow, you can apply multiple layers after the previous layer has dried.
- Patch Test: Always perform a patch test on a small, inconspicuous area of skin (e.g., inner forearm) before widespread use, especially if you have sensitive skin or are new to an ingredient.
- Not for Candles: This type of glitter is not suitable for candle making as it can interfere with the burning process and pose a fire hazard. Use only for specified cosmetic and decorative applications.
