Directions;
In a heat safe and sanitized container combine the phase A ingredients.
Tare scale and write down how much phase A weighs. (Including the beakers weight too)
Combine all ingredients in phase B in a separate heat safe sanitized container.
Fill a pan with about an inch of water and place it over your stove top on medium heat. (this is called a water bath)
Cover both phase A and phase B with foil and place in the water bath.
Heat until phase B has melted and both phases are around the same temperature. 70°C/158°F. (It may still look like there are chunks in phase B. This is just the Sepimax Zen and is normal)
Now remove phase A from heat and place on scale and replace any water that evaporated. Normally it's about 1 gram or less.
Remove phase B from heat and pour phase A into phase B and immediately mix with an Immersion Blender. Set to the side and let cool.
In another sanitized container, combine the Distilled water, DL Panthenol, & Niacinamide in phase C and mix until they all dissolve. Then add in the rest of the phase C ingredients.
Once your phase A/B has cooled to 104°F / 40°C add in the phase C ingredients and mix. (Don’t mix with the immersion blender)
I covered mine with Plastic Wrap and let it sit over night before pouring into my bottles.
Check and adjust pH. Keep between 4.5 - 5.5 (no pH adjusting should be needed)
I used this 1 oz treatment pump bottle.
