Ingredients for a 50g jar of cream

Phase 1:

• 27g Mineral water
• 5g Organic Cistus hydrolate
• 1g Vegetable glycerin

Phase 2:

• 2.5g Xyliance emulsifier
• 4g Coconut Oil

Phase 3:

• 4 drops Vitamin E

Preparation

1. Phase 1:
   Weigh the mineral water, Ciste hydrosol and vegetable glycerine in a beaker. Mix with a spatula.

2. Phase 2:
   Weigh the ingredients for phase 2 into another beaker (emulsifier, oils and butter).

3. Heating in a bain-marie:
   Heat the two beakers separately in a bain-marie to around 70°C.

4. Emulsion:
   Once both phases have reached the same temperature, slowly pour phase 1 into phase 2, while mixing with a beater-emulsifier (mobile deflocculator) for at least 2 minutes.

5. Whipping:
   Continue stirring for a further 2 minutes until the mixture whitens and becomes more viscous.

6. Cooling:
   Pour the mixture into a stainless steel bowl and continue mixing with a hand whisk. Place the bowl in a bain-marie of cold water and continue whisking to cool the cream.

7. Phase 3:
   Add phase 3 ingredients (vitamin E, preservatives, essential oils) one by one, mixing well between each addition.

8. pH:
   Check that the pH of the product is between 5 and 7 using pH strips.
