Avocado Hair Mask
D 0.20 Tocopherols - mixed
q.s. pH Adjuster
Method
1. Measure out phase A.
2. Add phase B to phase A. Stir through until evenly dispersed (note, sclerotium gum needs
overnight to swell fully - so make your product today but you'll need to give your product a final
stir tomorrow).
3. Heat phase A/B to 80⁰C. Combine phase C and to phase A/B under high shear stirring and mix
until waxes are melted and a smooth, glossy, homogenous emulsion forms.
4. Allow mixture to cool under low shear stirring until <40⁰C. Add phase D and stir through
under low shear until homogenous.
5. Allow to cool <25⁰C under low shear stirring. Check/adjust pH to 4.3 - 4.8. Full viscosity will
be achieved the next day, do not evaluate on the day you make it. Cover and allow to set
overnight and give a final stir the next day before packing off.
