Clear Hair Serum with Fragrance
Question
Which solvent or solubilizer can be used in a clear hair serum formulation containing `Dimethiconol (Cyclopentasiloxane Base)` and `Isododecane` to prevent turbidity (cloudiness) when fragrance is added?
Answer
Clear Hair Serum with Fragrance
To keep your hair serum formula clear after adding fragrance, especially when it contains ingredients like Dimethiconol (Cyclopentasiloxane Base) and Isododecane, you need a suitable fragrance solubilizer.
Based on your formula composition, we recommend using Flora Solve™ Clear (Fragrance Solubilizer).
Flora Solve™ Clear is designed to effectively combine fragrance oils and essential oils with oil or silicone bases, helping to create clear and stable formulas without the need for alcohol. It works by encapsulating the fragrance within micelles, keeping the overall mixture clear.
How to Use:
- Mix Flora Solve™ Clear with your fragrance oil at a ratio of typically 2-5 parts Flora Solve™ Clear to 1 part fragrance. Stir or blend thoroughly until the fragrance is fully solubilized.
- Slowly add this mixture to your main hair serum formula (containing Dimethiconol and Isododecane) while stirring until fully incorporated and clear.
Using Flora Solve™ Clear should help prevent your serum from becoming cloudy or separating when fragrance is added.
