Question

My BB cream formulation containing Polyethylene Wax has a lumpy texture. How can I fix this?

Answer

Based on the staff's reply, the lumpiness in your BB cream mixture is likely due to the Polyethylene Wax not being fully melted and incorporated. Polyethylene Wax has a melting point between 81.7-86.1°C. To fix this, you should heat your finished mixture to approximately 85-90°C, as recommended by the staff, and then blend it thoroughly until it becomes smooth and uniform.
