DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT NAME: SOY FLOUR
Fine powder obtained from defatted, milled soybeans. A plant-derived ingredient used in cosmetic formulations for its natural content of proteins, amino acids and antioxidant compounds.
Origin: Plant-based
Practical formulation guide
Usage level: Guideline range: 1–10 % in emulsions, soaps and deodorants; up to 100 % in powder masks and pressed powders.
How to use and incorporate: Dry-blend with the other powders or disperse in the water phase with good stirring. In powder masks, hydrate with water, hydrosol or vinegar at the time of use.
Formulation tips:
- Clays and powders absorb water and oil: adjust the proportion of liquids in the formula.
- In water-based products, the powder adds microbial load: use a preservative.
- Before scaling up, make a pilot batch and run a stability test (cycles at 4 / 25 / 45 °C/39 / 77 / 113 °F for 4 weeks, checking odor, color, pH, viscosity and separation) in the final packaging.
Compatibility: Compatible with other powders, oils, glycerin and soap bases.
Storage: Container tightly closed, in a dry place; moisture causes caking.
Precautions: Avoid inhaling the powder (wear a dust mask). Avoid contact with eyes.
