Answer

Mixing Fragrance into Cream using Satin Cream Maker

Here is a general guide on how to mix the ingredients you listed to create a fragranced cream using Satin Cream Maker:

Ingredients:

  • Water
  • Satin Cream Maker (Product ID 247)
  • Fractionated Coconut Oil (Product ID 169)
  • Fragrance (น้ำหอม) (Product ID 319)
  • Flora Fix (Product ID 3344)

General Mixing Steps:

  1. Prepare the Water Phase: Measure your desired amount of water.
  2. Incorporate Satin Cream Maker: Add the Satin Cream Maker to the water phase. Stir or mix until it is fully dispersed. Satin Cream Maker is often a cold-process or low-heat emulsifier, so heating the water phase might not be necessary, or only gentle warming. Refer to the specific product instructions for optimal temperature if available.
  3. Prepare the Oil Phase: Measure your desired amount of Fractionated Coconut Oil.
  4. Combine Phases: Slowly add the oil phase (Fractionated Coconut Oil) to the water phase containing the Satin Cream Maker while continuously stirring or mixing. Continue mixing until a stable emulsion (cream) forms.
  5. Add Fragrance and Flora Fix: Once the cream has formed and cooled down to below 40-45°C (lukewarm), mix your desired amount of Fragrance and Flora Fix together, perhaps using a small amount of Fractionated Coconut Oil as a carrier if needed. Add this mixture to the cream.
  6. Final Mix: Stir thoroughly to ensure the fragrance and fixative are evenly distributed throughout the cream.

Important Notes:

  • Percentages: The exact percentages for each ingredient will depend on your desired consistency and fragrance strength. Typical usage for fragrance in creams is around 0.1% - 1%. Flora Fix is usually used at a ratio to the fragrance (e.g., 1:1 or 2:1 Flora Fix to Fragrance). Satin Cream Maker and Fractionated Coconut Oil percentages will determine the cream's texture and richness. Start with small batches to test your formula.
  • Testing: Always test a small amount of the finished product on your skin to check for any irritation or sensitivity.
  • Preservation: For any product containing water, a preservative is essential to prevent microbial growth. The ingredients you listed do not include a preservative. You should add a suitable broad-spectrum preservative according to the manufacturer's recommended usage rate.
