I am formulating a moisturizing alcohol spray with the following ingredients: * Ethyl Alcohol (95%) * Witch Hazel (Distilled - Alcohol Free, Paraben Free) * Double Hyaluron Liquid * Calendula Extract (Water Soluble) * MOIST24 (Glycereth-26) * Aloe Vera Extract (อัตราสกัด 10:1 FullAssay™) When mixing, I observed white clumps/streaks with Double Hyaluron Liquid and significant cloudy precipitate with Aloe Vera Extract. I tested mixing each ingredient separately with alcohol and confirmed these two ingredients caused the issues. Could you please recommend alternative moisturizing ingredients that are soluble in alcohol and do not cause precipitation? Thank you.
