As many times I thought about giving up, I haven't yet. so don't give up. just be hopeful.
Im having a little trouble with that too, for the face. I made a batch but it's not brown. I didn't use eurcerin I used some kinda cream with PG in it. Since it's not brown, I'll see if it works.
I got advice to use 1-2 drops of LA to the warm PG before you add HQ. LA would prevent oxidation.
Instead of the cling wrap use a small jar with a screw lid so no air is exposed while your HQ dissolves
do a gentle swirl without opening the jar. the hq will dissolve way better without having to be exposed to air so no need to stir just swirl. It will be clear with tiny oil dots. no yellow tint. quickly add to the cream. shake
You can also add the preservative sodium metabisulfite to your HQ mix will help. dissolve 0.1g of SM (just a pinch) in water then pour in your HQcream. just a very small amount of water for it just to dissolve.
honestly, when I do equal amounts of DPG and HQ it will not dissolve AT ALL. the mixture was thick, cloudy and brown and I saw crystals so I made another mixture and ended up putting just a little more DPG. just a little, and when I did that the HQ dissolved clear.
I'm making 5% for the face
this stuff is tricky working with very small proportions.
if it doesn't work, then I'm just going to use f&f or something. but don't give up.
I'm using 10% hq serum for body skin hq/dpg and it's going well compounded. much simpler
