This composition with Lanettewascrème gives problems.

Composition: VitA 50kE, Lanettewascreme 15g, glycerin 35g and rosewater 50g.

Answer

Lanettewascrème has the following composition: Water, white Vaseline, Nipagine and Nipasol, sorbic acid, liquid paraffin and emulsifying cetylstearyl alcohol B. This is an O/W cream dilutable with water and glycerin.

The amount of water and glycerin is large and so after diluting a milk will be obtained. In order to avoid clubbers, it is consulted to gently warm the cream to liquid. The glycerin is also heated slightly (30 to 40 °C) and then added to the melted cream together with the Vit E. Eventually   The rosewater is added and the whole is regularly stirred to room temperature. If the milk is too liquid then 1 to 2% HPMC can be added.
