Yields 100%
Instructions
- Weigh out A (Lauryl Glucoside and Jojoba Ester Gel) together, stir well and heat slightly until the mixture becomes liquid.
- Weigh out B (water, Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate, salt, sugar, and citric acid) in a separate container, heat slightly and stir until all crystals have dissolved.
- Now stir A and B together.
- Add C (Preblend Aqua) and mix thoroughly. If desired, you can customize your product with scents, colors, and active ingredients at this point. We recommend a citrus essential oil (orange, grapefruit, lime, etc.); others could make your gel thin!
- By the way, the mixture is thinner when warm, so air (and any foam that may have formed) can escape better. You can therefore either fill the product immediately or let it sit on a warm stovetop for longer – foam and air bubbles will escape from the product overnight and it will become clear.
