Posted on: March 6 2013

How can we make this preparation? Almond oil 6 g cod liver oil 3 g lavender oil Q.S. Lanolin 18 G Rosewater 17 G

Lanoline can absorb another 25% water. Do we need to add an emulsifier?

Answer

Theoretically, you are right, but it sometimes occurs when one tries to large quantities (50%) Water in wool grease. That's why I suggest using water-free wool grease for the prescribed lanoline. There is often confusion in this area, and Lanolin is quoted when the facts of the wool grease are meant.
