What's it made of? Can I mix it with stearic acid acid?

I'm not sure exactly what's in it but it does mix well with stearic acid. I use it for making lotion and it works well.

Milliard emulsifying wax is vegetable based, rather thank petroleum based. I have found no reason to add stearic acid to my lotions, as I want the simplest ingredients possible! I have never had to use it in making creams (I use beeswax for them), just lotions, since the water phase to oil phase is higher. Depends on your recipes, and your goals. Good luck!

The ingredients to emulsifying wax are Cetearyl Alcohol, Polysorbate 60, PEG-150 Stearate, and Steareth-20. Emulsifying wax allows for water to be mixed with oil without separating since emulsifying wax is both an oil and a detergent (allowing for water and oil molecules to bind to it). Stearic acid is used to make cream emulsions consisting of oils and waters thicker, to the point of being hard. You can mix stearic acid and emulsifying wax by melting them together and then adding them to your emulsion.

If you're using it straight out of the jar, it will be very difficult to use but body heat will melt it...eventually. I recommend melting it and mixing it with some other oils like sweet almond, coconut or avocado, whipping it with a hand mixer then using it. It will re-harden but not nearly as brick-like as its original state. Once it's been mixed and re-hardens, it melts easily in the palm of your hand.

it is NOT blue (it is white). i know next to nothing about such things, but i think the lip balm ingredient that you might be interested in is STEAROYL INULIN which is produced in a process involving stearic acid chloride and inulin. stearoyl inulin, i suspect, is used in lip balm/skin care products as an emollient and/or emulsifier and/or surfactant--maybe. i use inulin (NOT to be confused with stearoyl inulin) as a prebiotic and in my homemade cocoa milk because it helps the raw/unprocessed cocoa powder dissolve more easily in cold milk (one of the few things in life that tastes good and is good for me).. it is NOT blue (it is white). i know next to nothing about such things, but i think the lip balm ingredient that you might be interested in is STEAROYL INULIN which is produced in a process involving stearic acid chloride and inulin. stearoyl inulin, i suspect, is used in lip balm/skin care products as an emollient and/or emulsifier and/or surfactant--maybe. i use inulin (NOT to be confused with stearoyl inulin) as a prebiotic and in my homemade cocoa milk because it helps the raw/unprocessed cocoa powder dissolve more easily in cold milk (one of the few things in life that tastes good and... » Read More it is NOT blue (it is white). i know next to nothing about such things, but i think the lip balm ingredient that you might be interested in is STEAROYL INULIN which is produced in a process involving stearic acid chloride and inulin. stearoyl inulin, i suspect, is used in lip balm/skin care products as an emollient and/or emulsifier and/or surfactant--maybe. i use inulin (NOT to be confused with stearoyl inulin) as a prebiotic and in my homemade cocoa milk because it helps the raw/unprocessed cocoa powder dissolve more easily in cold milk (one of the few things in life that tastes good and is good for me).. « Show Less

This is "organic" vinegar with 20% acidity according to the package label. However, I believe most vinegars nowadays are petroleum based and petroleum is "organic". I questioned Maestro-Gro if their vinegar was derived from grain or petroleum and the answer was "Our vinegar is derived from ethanoic acid, not from grain. It is a kosher, food grade acetic acid." In other words, their acetic acid is derived from acetic acid, as ethanoic acid is another name for acetic acid. Based on that response, I would guess it's petroleum derived and yes it is 20% acetic acid. According to the FDA, petroleum can be used to make vinegar.

I can't remember where I read it but it's main ingredient is Magnesium. It is a specific form of Magnesium, but I cannot remember which one. (oxide, stearate, dioxide,etc) As well, it lists petroleum Distillates on the can, as do almost all automotive products. Says it is environmentally friendly. Beyond that I am not sure. I hope that answers your question! By the way, that stuff really does work!

You can mix it with mineral oil, or olive oil to make a diluted liquid, or you could blend it into a zinc oxide ointment to make a cream. You could also blend mineral oil with zinc ointment and with lanolin for an even greater dilution. Ratio is generally 1:1 or if you blend all three, it is 1:1:1. You can experiment a little. My only concern is with the use of olive oil. I am not sure if it will not go rancid in time.
