Hello, you had a recipe for a shaving cream, which is absolutely excellent! But I can't find it on your website anymore, and unfortunately I don't think I saved it. Could you please give it to me here?or maybe by email? Thank you so much!

Hi Cornelia, Neroli hydrolate can be substituted with other hydrolates according to your preferences and characteristics. I recommend chamomile, melissa, cornflower or lime water. Instead of Manuka you can use Fragonia if you have it at hand.

Hello Cornelia, Yes, you can add xanthan gum around 0.1%, but no more than 0.2%. Our recommendation would be to try the recipe with 0.1% xanthan gum. Good luck!

Still me! :) What other hydrolate can replace neroli? Instead of EU Manuka can we use tea tree or fragonia?

Hello! You can add hilauronic acid LMW in phase B, before cosgard. You can include chamomile extract but it's more difficult to incorporate, I would rather recommend bisabolol, also in phase B. Adjust water dosage accordingly. Good luck and all the best!

Hello. Could you please kindly tell me in which phase can I add the Hyaluronic Acid LMW, in phase A or in phase B and in which order. After the tenside homogenizes or before? And I saw on one of the comments and answers, that you can also add chamomile extract. Please kindly let me know in what quantity and in which phase, A or B. I would have one more question, if these 2 ingredients are in addition to the original recipe, how do you change the percentages, or what to put less of to make it right, mineral water, floral water? Many thanks in advance!

Hello. I saw that you have changed the formula on this recipe. I have the old formula, is it ok? Could I go on this formula and put melaleuca essential oil and grapeseed extract?

Hello, Mădălina! We are glad that you are happy with the product made from our recipe. Powdered coconut tenside is indeed more difficult to solubilize, it requires patience; use lukewarm water to facilitate dissolution and do not work with a mixer, prepare the solution a few hours before preparing the recipe or even the evening before. As for the addition of hyaluronic acid, we recommend about 0.4 g of the LMW version. Good luck!

Hello, the product is wonderful! I have given up the intimate gels on the market, the feeling after washing with your intimate solution has no comparison! It gives a long-lasting freshness and the skin feels good after washing and irritation is gone. Congratulations! I also want to incorporate hyaluronic acid and would like to know what type of acid is suitable to add in the composition? LMW? And what grammage? And when mixing the solid tenside with water I found that it doesn't dissolve well, I tried with a fork to dissolve the lumps and it doesn't really work, and when I mixed with a small mixer it foamed too much. It foams when I add the powder, but gives a headache when dessert in the container, the liquid is obviously under the foam. Where am I going wrong? Thanks!
