Using Rich Cream Maker and Light Cream Maker in Coffee Scrub

Regarding your questions about using Rich Cream Maker in your coffee scrub formulation:

1. Can Rich Cream Maker replace Light Cream Maker?
   Yes, Rich Cream Maker can replace Light Cream Maker, but only if the oil percentage in your formula does not exceed 10%. Rich Cream Maker can emulsify up to 10% oil, while Light Cream Maker can handle 20-25% oil. Please check the percentage of Grape Seed Oil in your formula.

2. How to mix Rich Cream Maker (Oil Phase or Water Phase)?
   Rich Cream Maker begins to emulsify when both water and oil are present. The correct method is to disperse Rich Cream Maker in the Oil Phase (like Grape Seed Oil) with gentle heat (50-60°C) until it is well dispersed (it won't fully dissolve). Then, add the Water Phase to the mixture and continue mixing until a cream consistency is achieved. Your observation that it didn't dissolve in either phase alone is expected; it functions as an emulsifier in the presence of both phases and mixing.

3. Safe usage percentage for Light Cream Maker?
   Light Cream Maker is not harmful to the skin, even at higher concentrations. However, using more than 5% can cause pilling (forming small flakes or rolls) on the skin when applied.
