Hair Conditioner with BTMS 50 (volumizing)

Formula;

water phase

• 67.5% distilled water

• 3% 1,3 propanedial

• 2% glycerin

oil phase

• 5% BTMS 50

• 2.5% cetyl alcohol

• 5% neossance hemisqualane

cool down phase

• 6% distilled water

• 2% dl panthenol

• 2% wheat protein

• 2% volumizing complex

• 2% vegekeratin

• .5% liquid germall plus

• .5% essential oil or fragrance oil

Directions

• begin by weighing out the oil phase and water phase in two separate heat safe beakers

• cover and heat up both phases using a water bath

• while the phases are heating you can take this time to weigh out the cool down ingredients in an other beaker. I like to start with the distilled water first to dissolve the dl panthenol with, then I add in everything else and mix.

• once both the oil phase and water phase have been heated and held pour the water phase into the oil phase and blend with an immersion blender

• once it cools you can add in the cool down ingredients

• make sure everything is well mixed then add into your bottle of choice.

tip; conditioners are thick and can be difficult to get into bottles. I like to add my conditioner into a plastic baggier and cut off the tip and use it like a piping back to get my product into my bottle.
