Sinking or Floating Ingredients #
If you encounter issues with sinking or floating ingredients while using our Beard Oil Base, it is likely due to the addition of ingredients that are not oil soluble. Our Beard Oil Base is made only with all natural oils. If non-oil soluble ingredients are introduced, those with higher density will sink to the bottom, while those with lower density will float to the top, as they cannot properly mix. To ensure a homogeneous mixture, stick to oil soluble ingredients when formulating with our Beard Oil Base.
Rancid Smell or Discoloration #
If you detect a rancid odor or discoloration in your product, it is probable that the product has become contaminated. To prevent contamination, we advise following these steps when formulating and repackaging your product:
- Cleanliness – Ensure that all equipment, tools, and packaging materials are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized before use. This includes containers, mixing utensils, and any other items that come into contact with the base.
- Proper storage – Store your product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. Exposure to excessive heat or light can degrade the product and promote bacterial growth.
- Good manufacturing practices – Adhere to strict hygiene practices during formulation and repackaging. Use gloves to minimize contact and prevent contamination from your hands. Avoid touching the inside of containers or bottles that will be used for packaging.
- Controlled environment – Work in a clean and controlled environment, minimizing airborne contaminants and dust particles. Consider using air purifiers or working in a designated cleanroom if possible.
- Batch testing – Perform regular batch testing to ensure the quality and stability of your product. This can include microbial testing, pH measurement, and visual inspections for any signs of contamination or spoilage.
- Non-reactive tools – When incorporating additives or transferring your product into packaging, it is crucial to use non-reactive tools to avoid any unwanted chemical reactions. Reactive mixing or filling tools, such as metal containers, pumps, or mixing tools, can potentially interact with ingredients like antioxidants or specific fragrances, leading to product contamination, discoloration, or unpleasant odors. To prevent these issues, we recommend utilizing materials like plastic, glass, or non-reactive metals such as stainless steel. By opting for non-reactive tools, particularly stainless steel, you can ensure the integrity and quality of your products remain uncompromised.
