I usually use stearic acid for my lotions, but for my eye lotion I wanted something a little softer. I used this to replace the stearic in my formulation and it was great. I just wish it was comparable in price to the stearic. Look this up on Skin Deep, it's a 0, which is as safe as you can get.

Love this emulsifier!!.I combine it with the solubilizer(emulsifier, stabilizer,...)to combine the phases in my lotion.They make a wonderful combo=).My first lotion!.I'm a new customer and I will continue to purchase from them.Love the customer service.
Ps: in the bowl containing the very warm water add the very warm oil phase slowly to it while using a electric hand blender.It should emulsify in that second.Cont mixing untill cool then add your additives(fragrance,...)
