Just a little tip on formulating.

Measure each ingredient separately, especially beginners.

Some folks have a steady hand and some of us are heavy pourers. Plus when it comes to formulating we need to be as accurate as we can be. Yes it does mean a little more time but less mistakes ✔️

Hope this tip was useful.

When heating a product that is formulated with hard wax such as beeswax, candelilla, carnauba or any other hard waxes, low and slow is the way to go. ( I love that this rhymes)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hard waxes usually have a high melting point so they will need a higher temperature. Try not to add a lower melting point oil too early, it can change the chemical composition and benefits of the oil.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What are your favorite waxes ?
