Description
Harness the foolproof, cream-making power of Emulsifying Wax NF, the standardized blend of cetearyl alcohol and polysorbate 60 defined by the U.S. National Formulary, for your Build-Your-Own ORY® skincare, haircare, cosmetics, and solid bars. Because it contains both halves of an emulsifier pair in one waxy, plant-derived pellet, it reliably turns oil and water into a smooth, stable, non-ionic lotion or cream — the reason it is the most widely used emulsifier among small-batch makers and an ideal base for ORY® custom creams. Its non-ionic nature tolerates acids, salts, and most actives, and both components are reviewed as safe by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Panel. In your custom lotion, cream, body butter, or cleansing cream, it gives every skin type soft, velvety texture — from thin lotion to thick cream by dose — while cetearyl alcohol helps reduce water loss. In your curl cream, leave-in, hair mask, or scalp cream, it builds smooth, non-cationic hair creams. In your cosmetics, it supports cream foundations, BB creams, and cream blush. In your handmade range, it structures lotion and syndet bars. Customize your cruelty-free, vegan formulation for smooth, stable creams every time. Caution: Contains a PEG-type component (polysorbate 60) — not for COSMOS/natural-certified formulas. Rare fatty-alcohol sensitivity — patch test. Not for cold-process soap.
