Question
How can I add Silicone Shine to a serum formulation and keep the final product clear?
Answer
Based on the conversation, you asked how to add Silicone Shine to your serum formula and keep it clear.
According to the staff's response, adding Silicone Shine will make the formula cloudy or white, and it is not possible to keep it clear.
The staff suggested using Milk Lotion Maker (2-3%) as an emulsifier to incorporate Silicone Shine, but this ingredient will result in a cloudy, milk-like texture. They also noted that Milk Lotion Maker requires heat, so Pure Keratin should be added after the mixture cools.
Therefore, achieving a clear serum while incorporating Silicone Shine is not possible with the suggested method.
