Question
Can Oil Thick™ Clear S (ID: 1599) be used to formulate a body oil product, or is its application limited solely to lip products?
Answer
Yes, Oil Thick™ Clear S (ID: 1599) can definitely be used to make a body oil, or more accurately, a clear body oil gel. It is not limited to just lip products.
Key points for using it in a body oil gel:
- Function: This product is an oil gelling agent designed to thicken oils in any formulation.
- Texture Benefit: It creates a unique thixotropic gel texture. This means the gel appears thick and stable in the container, but when you apply it to the skin and rub it (when force is applied), it immediately liquefies and spreads easily like a liquid oil. This makes it excellent for body applications where easy spreading is desired.
- Compatibility: It is suitable for use with non-polar oils (like Mineral Oil) and some polar oils (natural oils and some esters like LipidSoft™).
Therefore, you can use it to create a clear, luxurious body oil gel that is easy to apply and provides a rich, emollient feel.
