Hey all!
I picked up some Green Tea Powder to use in my lotions. And so far I've tried twice (both at 1%) of the lotion to get it to work. It won't.
It doesn't seem to want to emulsify when I add the powder. I tried it once adding it directly to the water phase and then mixing my oils in, and once I added it at the end once everything was mixed.
Any suggestions as to how to get it to work? I thought of maybe making a green tea infusion with a small amount of distilled water, and then adding that, once it is mixed, into the water phase. Or maybe with some glycerin.
How do you guys add powders to your lotions?
Thanks!
