Recipe: Invigorating Lemon Fresh Hand Wash
Create a clear, invigorating liquid hand wash that showcases the solubility and refreshing aroma of the Water-Soluble Fragrance Oil "Lemon Fresh".
Ingredients:
-
Eighty grams Distilled Water (Aqueous Base)
-
Fifteen grams Cocamidopropyl Betaine (Primary Surfactant)

Instructions for Preparation:
First Step: In a clean mixing beaker, combine the Distilled Water and the Vegetable Glycerin. Stir gently until fully mixed.
