Our luscious Rose Silk Cream offers a silky smooth feel with the exquisite scent of Rose Otto. This formula is based on our natural emulsification and conditioning system that includes Sodium Behenoyl Lactylate (SBL), Behenyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid and VenaSilk. We have combined our natural emulsification system with Shea Butter, Meadowfoam Oil, Jojoba Oil and our Calendula Extract OS for optimum skin softening, conditioning and moisturization. Herbarie Rose Hydrosol is utilized as the entire water phase in this formulation. Our Rose Otto Essential Oil 10% in Fractionated Coconut Oil is excellent for dry or aging skin and lends a lovely scent to this exquisite, skin-nourishing and all-natural cream.

Notes:
-Optiphen can be added to the water phase, but may disrupt the formulation. We have better success when adding it to the cool-down phase.
-High shear mixers such as a stick-blender can be used to create a thicker cream. Our Mini-mixer can be used for tiny batches of 250g or less. Propeller mixers or beaters or a hand-held whisk can be used to created a thinner cream.
