Is the dry to normal moisturizer a gel ? Is it water soluble? -
The Dry to Normal is a thin moisturizing lotion, not a gel. It is not water soluble.

Is there a way to make this a little thicker? I like the consistency of the glycolic acid facial cream. Can it be like that? -
Hi Hazelina, we do carry a lotion thickener that will work: https://essentialsbycatalina.com/product/lotion-thickening-agent/ Suggested level: 3 – 6 %
Specific instructions for use can be found on the product page.Hope this helps!

Are both Facial Moisturizer Bases – Dry to Normal Skin and Oily to Normal Skin a thick and cream? -
Hi Mark, when comparing the facial formulas to our body creams, both the Dry and Oily moisturizers will definitely seem thinner, as most facial products are formulated to not feel heavy on the face. While they are not heavy, they are rich and creamy.
We do have denser creams, and there is no reason they cannot be used on the face, but most customers prefer the consistency of the Dry/Normal and Oily Facial Moisturizers. Most customers also package our facial creams in jars, though it will dispense through a treatment pump if that is the preferred application.Thank you
