Question

Can Glycerin (USP/Food Grade) be added to Oil Milk (Laureth-4)? What is the maximum amount that can be added without causing the formula to become cloudy, and does the amount depend on the proportion of Oil Milk in the formula?

Answer

Adding Glycerin to Oil Milk™

Yes, you can add Glycerin (USP/Food Grade) to Laureth-4 (Oil Milk™), but it should be done in small amounts.

Adding too much Glycerin can cause the formula to become cloudy. The maximum amount you can add depends on the proportion of Laureth-4 (Oil Milk™) in your overall formula.

It is recommended to add Glycerin gradually to your formula, mixing gently each time, to determine the highest amount you can incorporate without causing cloudiness.
