Clear, Washable Massage Oil Formula

To create a clear massage oil that can be easily washed off with water, you can combine a suitable base oil with an emulsifier that allows the oil to mix with water.

Based on the discussion and product information, the key ingredient for achieving this washability is Laureth-4, also known as Oil Milk™.

When Oil Milk™ is added to an oil base, it allows the oil to turn into a milky consistency upon contact with water, making it much easier to rinse off compared to pure oil.

For the base oil, Mineral Oil is a popular choice for clear, odorless massage oils, as mentioned in the forum thread. Various viscosities are available, such as Very Light (5cst, 15cst) or Heavy (68cst).

Simple Formulation Idea:

Combine:

• Base Oil (e.g., Mineral Oil): 90-95%
• Laureth-4 (Oil Milk™): 5-10%

Mix the ingredients together until clear and uniform. When this oil blend comes into contact with water, it will emulsify into a milky liquid and wash away easily.

This method allows you to create a clear massage oil that provides good slip for massage but is convenient to remove afterward.
