Good afternoon, I have purchased your product CoCool™ (Menthol + Menthyl Lactate) and would like to use it in a lip gloss formulation. My question is whether this ingredient is safe for use on the lips and, if so, at what concentration it can be used in this area without causing irritation. Thank you.
Can this ingredient be added to products that need a warming feeling?
- 12H Fix (0.8%): 3.84 grams - LipidSoft Lite (1.6%): 7.68 grams - Fragrance (25%): 120.0 grams - Alcohol (72.6%): 348.48 grams ## Mixing steps (method) 1. Dissolve the base (Phase A): Add 12H Fix and LipidSoft Lite to a beaker, heat (60-70°C), and stir until dissolved clear and uniform. 2. Lower the temperature: Remove from the hot plate and wait until it cools down to room temperature (do not skip this step at all). 3. Add the fragrance: Pour in the fragrance oil and stir to combine. 4. Add the solvent: Add alcohol (DEB96) last, stirring gently until the liquid is clear and well combined. 5. Rest and age: Cover and leave at room temperature for 12-24 hours until all bubbles collapse, then put into the normal refrigerator compartment to age the scent. The problem I found is that it still has sediment like jelly.

Hello, I would like to ask about SugarThick™ (PEG-120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate). I am currently testing it in a cleanser/surfactant system, but found that the material is very difficult to dissolve and hydrate, even though I have: * Heated it to around 55–60°C * Used continuous mixing * Added it together with the cleansing agents However, the PEG-120 still clumps into flakes/granules and still does not develop viscosity or build gel structure as expected. So I would like to ask further: 1. Does this material have any recommended pre-disperse method or hydration method in particular? 2. Which phase of the formula should it be added to? 3. Are there any recommendations regarding temperature / shear / order of addition? 4. Does this grade need to be used together with certain types of surfactant in order to build viscosity well?
