Guest guest Posted June 2, 2002 Report Share Posted June 2, 2002 Hi Leann & Jen; Here is the recipe for the liquid powder. I got it off Snowdrift Farms web site. I changed a couple of the ingredients they listed as I didn't have them.I used Emulsifying wax instead of the emmulsifyer that they had listed and I used Sweet almond oil for the oil in mine instead of the wheat germ oil. Recipe is: SILKY LIQUID POWDER 1 tsp E Wax 1 tsp jojoba oil 2 tsp sweet almond oil 2 Tbs coconut oil 2 Tbs natrasorb 2 Tbs water 1 tsp polysorbate 20 pinch of methylparabin coloring and fragrance if desired. Mix oils together and heat to melt E Wax and coconut oil. Warn the water add polysorbate 20 and methylparabin. Stir to dissolve, Add natrasorb and mix well. Add the water mixture to the oil mixture and whisk well untill an emulsion forms. This is the time to add the color and the fragrance. When it starts to thicken, bottle. This has the consistancy of a thick lotion goes on like a lotion but when absorbed into skin leaves a slight powdery feeling. Hope this answers your question.

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2002 Report Share Posted June 3, 2002 I would like to try the recipe for liquid powder, but is there anything I can use instead of the polysorbate and methylparabin. I don't have either one. Thanks for your help. Esther Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 3, 2002 Report Share Posted June 3, 2002 Hi Esther; You could probally leave out the methylparabin as it is a preservative. But I would recomend this if you are going to use this for yourself or give it to family. You could also leave out the polysorbate 20 as it is an emulsifyer if you are using the Ewax.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 Something like this? http://www.snowdriftfarm.com/footcare101pg2.html Maybe you can play with this recipe. Or Ask the Chemist! He is my favourite person. Smilies Louise How would i make a powder into a liquid? I mean for the sake of it being in a tube as a lotion and then drying to a silky powder when applied to the skin? Thanks a million in advance! Celeste in oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 Hi Celeste; I make the liquid powder and really like it. It is made simular to a body lotion, except that it has in it Natrasorb which is a wheat or tapioca starch which is like corn starch. Here is the recipe that I use. Silky Liquid Powder 2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil 2 Teaspoons Almond Oil 1Teaspoon Jojoba Oil 1 Teaspoon Emulsifying Wax 2 Tablespoons Distilled Water 1 Teaspoon Polysorbate 20 Pinch of Preservative Mix oils together to warm and to melt the Emulsifying Wax, Warm the Water, add polysorbate 20 and the preservative, mix well, add natrasorb and mix untill it is dissolved . Combine water mixture with the oil mixture and whisk untill an emulsion forms ans thickens, Bottle. This recipe makes about 8 ouunces. Enjoy.
