Answer

Based on your requirement to thicken massage oil for easier application without spillage, you need an oil gelling agent.

A suitable natural option for creating a harder oil gel texture is Oil Thick™ Hard. This product uses Dextrin Palmitate as its active ingredient, which is derived from natural sources.

How to use Oil Thick™ Hard:

  • Usage Rate: You can use Oil Thick™ Hard at a concentration of 0.1% to 10% of your total oil formulation. A higher percentage will result in a thicker, harder gel.
  • Mixing Method: It needs to be mixed into the oil or hydrocarbons (like Isododecane, Isohexadecane, or LipidSoft types) and heated to 75-90°C until the powder is fully dissolved and homogeneous. Then, let it cool to solidify.

Using Oil Thick™ Hard will help transform your liquid massage oil into a more solid or semi-solid texture, making it easier to handle and apply precisely.
