Procedure

Add the Phase A components to the main one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Heat up to ~80°C. In a separate vessel, combine the UV filters and Schercemol DIA and heat to ~80°C while mixing. It’s important to ensure the BEMT is fully solubilized before adding the remaining ingredients. Once uniform and clear continue to add the remaining Phase B ingredients one at a time mixing until uniform while continuing to heat up to temp ~80°C. Once both phases have reached a temperature of approximately 80°C, transfer B to A, mixing at temp for 10 mins then begin to cool. @ 60°C add Phase C ingredients one at a time and mix thoroughly after each addition. Mix until room temperature.
