Hello this is my recipe and was wondering if anybody can help with my oils so this is it

75% Water
3% Stearic acid
4% Emu wax

2% cocoa butter
2% Shea butter

Should I not combine butters ?

14% liquid oils

so what oils should I use I can't use almond,but I have olive oil, coconut oil and avocado oil

my thought was to use maybe 6% olive oil and 8% coconut oil or should I use full 14% of one oil ?

Any thoughts ?
thank you

What type of skin do you have? I find olive, canola and avocado too heavy and greasy for me. Coconut is ok though.

Then those should work fine for you. Were you planning on using any other emulsifier? Stearic acid needs another emulsifier like e-wax NF or Polawax. I'm not sure what they are called out of the US. Maybe Cetearyl Alcohol and Polysorbate 60 or Behentrimonium Methosulfate and Cetearyl Alcohol?

I've never heard of emu wax being an emulsfier. Emu is normally just an oil.

Oh ok. Then you can use any liquid oils that you like.

You're welcome. The only way to know is to try it. :)
