Give your formulation its signature scent
Solubilizer guidance: A solubilizer is needed if adding fragrance or essential oils to this water-based product. Pre-mix your Polysorbate 20 with your fragrance before adding it to the base — start at a 1:1 ratio and increase up to 5:1 depending on the specific fragrance. Small-batch testing is strongly recommended. If a fragrance doesn't solubilize on the first attempt, adding more Polysorbate to the already-scented base will not correct it; the pre-mix step is essential.
Caution: We recommend that you do not use citrus-based essential oils with this base.

Hi there! I love the consistency of the Neutrogena Hydro boost body gel cream. Would I be able to mix this with another one of your bases to get the consistency? Fingers crossed you are familiar with the Hydro boost gel cream! any help would be greatly appreciated! -
Can this be used as a base serum either during Microneedling or after?

Excellent lightweight Gel Moisturizer Base for DIY
To my knowledge, it is the ONLY truly lightweight, gel type (oil-free) moisturizer base easily accessible on the market. I have tried a range of cream bases – everything from MakingCosmetics, Ingred to Die For, Bulk Actives – and even the “lighter” geared ones are far too heavy for anyone under 60.
This is the lightest, most hydrating gel moisturizer (reminds me in richness to that of Neutro***** HydroBoost Water Gel or Clini*** Dramaticall Diff Moisturizing Gel) suitable for even the oiliest skin types (ideal for adolescent skin).
Despite the manufacturer’s & carrier’s information, I have been successfully able to incorporated upwards of 10% by volume additional liquid active ingredients to this base with no problem. Seems to incorporate moderate %s of oil (Vit. E Acetate, Grapeseed Oil etc) and becomes a thicker lotion consistency. Moderate %s of water-soluble actives (d-Panthenol, liposomal Niacinamide, Algae Extract) make the gel more runny – but its nothing that adding 0.25%-0.5% Aristoflex to the batch won’t fix (Aristoflex is the main gel emulsifier in this product). Any additional ingredient load in the 7-10% range would be wise to add the Aristoflex just to stabilize it. No heat required, easily done with hand mixer.
