Cosmetic Recipe: DIY Aftershave Balm "The Gentleman's Soothe"

Craft a calming and beautifully scented aftershave balm that soothes skin while leaving a subtle hint of "The One Gentleman" fragrance.

Instructions for Preparation:

1. Sanitization: Ensure all your equipment, including beakers, stirring rods, containers, and your finished product jar, are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized.
2. Phase A (Oil Phase): In a heat-resistant beaker, combine Jojoba Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Emulsifying Wax NF, and Cetyl Alcohol.
3. Phase B (Water Phase): In a separate heat-resistant beaker, combine Distilled Water, Aloe Vera Liquid, and Vegetable Glycerin.
4. Heating: Gently heat both Phase A and Phase B in separate double boilers (or microwave carefully) to approximately 70-75°C (158-167°F). Ensure all solids in Phase A are fully melted.
5. Emulsification: Once both phases reach the target temperature, slowly pour the heated Water Phase (B) into the heated Oil Phase (A) while continuously stirring with a stick blender or whisk. Blend vigorously for 3-5 minutes until a stable emulsion forms.
6. Cooling and Stirring: Continue stirring gently as the balm cools. You can place the beaker in an ice bath to speed up the cooling process. Stir intermittently until the balm reaches around 35-40°C (95-104°F) and begins to thicken.
7. Phase C (Cool Down Phase): Once the balm has cooled sufficiently, add Panthenol, Allantoin, and Liquid Germall Plus. Stir thoroughly to ensure even dispersion.
8. Adding Fragrance: Finally, add the Fragrance Oil The One Gentleman D&G (start with 0.5% and add more if a stronger scent is desired, up to 1.0%). Mix well for a few minutes to fully incorporate the fragrance.
9. Packaging: Pour the finished aftershave balm into your clean, sanitized jar or container. Allow it to cool completely before capping.

Recommendations for Use:

• Dosage Precision: Always use accurate measurements for all ingredients, especially the fragrance oil, as a little goes a long way. The recommended percentage for fragrance in creams and lotions is typically 0.5-1.0%. For perfumery, follow the higher percentages for the desired product type (EDT, EDP, Perfume).
• Skin Compatibility: While this fragrance oil is of high quality, always perform a small patch test on a discreet area of skin before widespread use, especially if you have sensitive skin, to check for any irritation or allergic reactions.
• Blending: When making perfumes, allow the finished product to "macerate" (rest) for a few weeks in a cool, dark place. This allows the fragrance notes to fully meld and develop, resulting in a more complex and harmonious scent.
• Storage: Store the Fragrance Oil The One Gentleman D&G in its original airtight container, in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and heat, to preserve its integrity and aroma.
• Safety: Avoid direct contact with eyes. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Keep out of reach of children. Always follow good manufacturing practices (GMP) when creating cosmetic products.
