Rheology modifiers are such an easy and awesome way to elevate your lotions, to create new textures, new skin sensations, and new sensory characteristics, and confer more stability to any emulsion. Join me in this e-book as we use a variety of these gorgeous water thickeners with a few different emulsifiers, like Olivem 1000, Simulsol/Lotionpro™ 165, Montanov™ 202, Polawax, e-wax, and Natragem EW, creating light, luxurious facial moisturizers to creamy creams by adding as little as 0.1% Siligel, Sepimax Zen, Xanthan Gum, Aristoflex AVC, HEC, or Sepimax Zen.
