Solid Conditioner Melt and Pour Base 800gm Our Stephenson's RSPO Mass Balance Solid Conditioner base is a unique melt and pour base for creating easy to use, sustainable in-shower hair conditioner bars. Specially formulated using natural emulsifiers, shea butter and coconut oil to provide hair conditioning and nourishment. Product Characteristics Vegetable Based Shea butter & coconut oil provide nourishment Behentrimonium chloride helps condition the hair (this ingredient is part of BTMS Conditioning Emulsifier) RSPO MB Certification Melting begins at 60°C Melt the product in a microwave or a suitable heating device such as a crock-pot or double boiler.ensuring that the base melts evenly. Stirring the product regularly helps to do this. The product should start melting above 60 °C. Once the base is molten, additives such as fragrance, color and conditioning agents can be added to customize the base. Simply add the chosen additives to the molten product and mix to ensure even distribution. It is recommended that the level of additives included is up to 5 % maximum. This level would include up to 2 % fragrance. Pour the molten product into a mold or suitable container between 75 – 80 °C and allow to set. Once the solid conditioner-MB base has set, remove the product from the mould or suitable container and package as required. Selection of packaging should be carefully considered due to the oily nature of the product. If the finished product is to be sliced, we recommend using a wire cutter. The deposition of the solid conditioner-MB base may be improved by adding extra oil such as coconut oil. This will help to reduce the melting point of the base and in turn will lead to a softer product which will deposit more easily when in contact with hot water.
