Mixing Instructions
- Mix the powders: Silk Mica Powder, Beige Iron Oxides EasyMix™, and Titanium Dioxide 200nm EasyDisperse™ together.
- Heat the oil phase (Water-in-Oil EZ™, SPF Protect Ultra™ II, Polyethylene Wax, LipidSoft™ Disperse, Mild Preserved Eco™) to 85°C and the water phase to a similar temperature of about 80-85°C.
- While blending the oil phase, slowly add the water phase until the cream is fully formed. Turn off the heat.
