I am making a reed diffuser using the following ratio: Essential Oil 20%, Alcohol 20% (I tried increasing it to 30% but it was still cloudy), and Base diffuser type 1 60%. I encountered two problems: 1) The mixture becomes cloudy even when using ethyl alcohol. What is the cause of this problem, and are there any ingredients that can fix it? 2) With some essential oils, the mixture is not cloudy or separated when using the above ratio, but the alcohol smell is very strong. Is there an alternative formula that can be mixed with essential oils without using alcohol, or is there a way to reduce the alcohol smell?

I am interested in making a cleansing balm for home use that melts easily on the skin but remains solid at room temperature in Thailand. 1. What is a suitable melting point for this type of product? 2. I would like to use ingredients similar to this list, or if simpler, please advise on the percentage of oil blend, emulsifier, butter, and wax. Should there be water, and if so, how much? Please also provide the mixing steps. ethylhexyl palmitate Cetyl Ethylhexanoate C12-15 alkylbenzoate Caprylic Capric Glycerides Triethylhexanoin Natural Oil such as Chia Seed Oil, Tea seed Oil (Camellia), Jojoba Oil Rice Bran Wax or Candellilia Wax Polyethylene (wax) shea butter Cocoa Butter c8-10 Triglyceride (Melting Butter) Please recommend the percentages for each ingredient/group or suggest a formula if other ingredients are needed. 3. What is Glyceryl Steareth? Is it in the oil or water phase? 4. For the emulsifier, I prefer to use the polyglyceryl group because I am sensitive to PEG. Could you also recommend Deceth/Trideceth options? I prioritize a soft and clean feel. (Background: I am not a chemist, just want to make this at home as commercial products are expensive. I might ask many questions, please answer all points. Thank you.)

Regarding Order no. #096674 Activ ING 0, I would like to ask the R&D team about the ingredients (I have already asked about the order, but haven't received a response, so I'm asking here again). 1. I want to improve the following aspects: 1.1 The texture is too thick; I want it to be more liquid so it can be used with a dropper. I want it to drop out like water on a lotus leaf, but when spread, it should be liquid. 1.2 I want it to absorb quickly and not feel sticky on the face after application. Currently, when applied without mixing with water or lotion, it doesn't absorb into the skin and feels very sticky. 1.3 When applied, it absorbs but leaves a thin, shiny film on the skin. Which ingredient causes this, and how can it be fixed? 1.4 Which ingredient causes the "sea-like" smell, and how can I neutralize it to make the serum odorless? 2. General knowledge questions: 2.1 If I don't include [url=http://www.myskinrecipes.com/shop/emulsifier/247-satin-mousse-silky-cream-maker.html:3dftistz]Satin Cream Maker[/url:3dftistz] which the company added, and only include the ingredients I originally specified, will they mix? What will the texture be like? Will it separate? 2.2 Does [url=http://www.myskinrecipes.com/shop/%E0%B9%80%E0%B8%9B%E0%B9%8A%E0%B9%80%E0%B8%9B%E0%B9%84%E0%B8%97%E0%B8%94%E0%B9%8C%E0%B8%A5%E0%B8%94%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B4%E0%B9%89%E0%B8%A7%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%A2/762-madecassoside-centella-asiatica-extract.html:3dftistz]Centella Asiatica Extract[/url:3dftistz] have a smell?
