I want to make a cream using Warp Cream Maker™ and need to thicken the texture. Are there methods other than using Silicone Gel (Ultra Clear, Super Silky)?

Answer

Alternatives to Thicken Cream Made with Warp Cream Maker™

Based on your question and the information available, besides using Silicone Gel (Ultra Clear, Super Silky), there are two other methods you can use to thicken a cream made with Warp Cream Maker™:

  1. Increase the Water Phase: You can increase the proportion of the water phase in your formulation. However, it is crucial not to let the water content exceed 40% of the total formula. Exceeding this limit may compromise the stability of the cream and could lead to separation over time.

  2. Add SiliSilk™: Incorporating SiliSilk™ into your cream can also help to thicken the texture. It's important to note that adding SiliSilk™ will also make the cream feel softer and more slippery on the skin. While this contributes to a pleasant, smooth application, some users might perceive a very light, powdery finish as containing fewer active ingredients compared to a slightly richer texture.

SiliSilk™ is available in various types, each offering slightly different characteristics in terms of softness, oil absorption, and blurring effects. You can choose a type that best suits the desired final feel and performance of your cream.

By using either of these methods, you can adjust the consistency of your Warp Cream Maker™ cream to be thicker while maintaining the desirable light and non-greasy feel you appreciate.
