Has anyone else used Floral Waxes in their Body Butter recipe with any success?
I used 1/2 oz of Tuberose Floral Wax in a Body Butter recipe today and I couldn't get it to fully incorporate into the oils. I melted the Cocoa Butter (50% of recipe) and the Tuberose Wax and mixed them together. I added that mixture to warm Almond Oil (25%), Avocado Oil (22%), Vitamin E Oil (1%), and my essential oil blend (2%) and whipped it with my KitchenAid stand mixer. I noticed the wax solidified into teensy tiny little bits throughout the butter. It isn't obvious, smells nice, and it doesn't feel gritty, but I know it's there :evil:
I have 2 ounces of Jasmine Floral Wax from Camden-Grey that I would like to use in a Mango Body Butter, but don't want to run into the same problem.
Any suggestions :?:
