Q&A
- Is it(echochic) heat tolerant or heat sensetive? As it is both different information on the description.
- Thank you for your enquiry. The heat tolerant is in regard to 'how to use it' and the heat sensitive is in regard to 'how to store it'. "Heat tolerant so can be added in Stage 2 (water stage) when making creams and lotions." "It is sensitive to heat, moisture and light so store the material tightly sealed and in a dark place."
- Can this be used in a body soap as replacement for carboxymethyl inulin?
- Thank you for your enquiry. It wouldn't be a like for like swap as although they are both inulin, they have different functions. It really depends on the reason for using carboxymethyl inulin as if it's for the appearance of the soap and for it's chelating abilities and preventing soap **** then Aromantic's inulin would not be a suitable replacement. If it's for the feel of the soap and moisturising properties then that's different. We haven't worked with carboxymethyl inulin so can't really comment on what the exact differences would be.
- Can this product EcoChic conditioning agent be replaced by pure insulin? Thank you Anika
- No, you can't replace Ecochic conditioning agent with pure Insulin. They are not the same thing. Inulin is a prebiotic whereas insulin is a hormone.
