Question
I am using LipidSoft™ Lite as a base. What kind of active ingredients can I mix with it? How can I thicken the resulting liquid texture?
Answer
Yes, you can use LipidSoft™ Lite as a base for mixing various active ingredients, but there are considerations as the staff has advised.
Using LipidSoft™ Lite as a Cream Base
- Active Ingredients: You can add active ingredients directly into LipidSoft™ Lite, but they must be oil-soluble ingredients only, such as MSH White™, SKIN-DEFENSE®, or Vitamin E.
- Product Texture: Since LipidSoft™ Lite is a liquid oil, the resulting product texture will be liquid.
- Adjusting Viscosity: If you wish to thicken the texture, you can use oil gelling agents like Hectorite Gel™ or Sugar Gel (Oil Gellant) to create a thicker consistency.
In summary, LipidSoft™ Lite is suitable for use as a base for oil-soluble ingredients, and if a thicker texture is desired, oil gelling agents can be used to help achieve this.
