Hi, I was just wondering why you use beeswax, borax, stearic acid,vegetable emulsifying wax, and xanthum gum, would just using borax and beeswax be enough to bind the oil and water? | |

So sorry for the late reply. I like to use a combination of all because it gives my creams a nicer consistency. Using just beeswax and borax is a personal choice but yes, it would be enough. | |
