Using Oil Blender to emulsify oil in a scrub formulation (oil percentage limit)

Question

I am making a scrub formulation that contains oil and water. I want to use Oil Blender to emulsify the oil into the water phase.

My initial formula includes 30% oil.

Based on the conversation, here's a summary regarding using Oil Blender for your oil and water scrub:

Oil Blender can indeed be used to emulsify oil and water, creating a Water-in-Oil type formulation.
However, the staff indicated that for Oil Blender to work effectively, the oil phase should ideally not exceed 20% (this was specified for Fractionated Coconut Oil, and standard Coconut Oil might be even more challenging due to its heavier texture).
Your initial proposed formula containing 30% oil is likely too high for Oil Blender to handle effectively based on this advice.
The staff provided an example formula with 20% Fractionated Coconut Oil and 3% Oil Blender, which you plan to try. This revised ratio is more suitable for Oil Blender.
You also mentioned you will discuss ClayThick in a separate topic.

We hope the example formula works well for your scrub!
