Cloudiness in Cleansing H2O Micellar Solution Formula

ถามโดย: siniyacorp เมื่อ: July 16, 2018 ประเภทผลิตภัณฑ์: เครื่องสำอาง

คำถาม

I am making a Cleansing H2O Micellar Solution with the following ingredients:

  • Water
  • Propylene Glycol
  • PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate (coco-wash)
  • PEG-6 Caprylic/Capric Glycerides (Make Up-Wash)
  • Phenoxyethanol SA

I added Phenoxyethanol SA at 1% to the formula which contains approximately 76% water. The solution turned cloudy after adding the Phenoxyethanol SA. What is causing this cloudiness, and how can I fix it?

Cleansing H2O Micellar Solution Cloudiness

The cloudiness in your Cleansing H2O Micellar Solution formula is likely due to the Phenoxyethanol SA not fully dissolving in the water at the concentration you used (1% in a formula with 76% water).

To resolve this issue, you can try the following:

  • Reduce the concentration of Phenoxyethanol SA: Lower the amount of Phenoxyethanol SA to 0.5% of the total formula.
  • Warm the mixture: Gently heat the formula to approximately 60°C and stir or blend continuously. The solution should become clearer as you mix.

Even if the solution does not become perfectly clear like water, it should still be effective and safe to use.

The ingredients you used were Water, Propylene Glycol, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate (coco-wash), PEG-6 Caprylic/Capric Glycerides (Make Up-Wash), and Phenoxyethanol SA.
