Never heard of sunflower wax. Will look into it. Thanks, Saranac. I've come across propylene glycol in my search for an answer to this question, can anyone tell me if it can be used in anhydrous products like my whipped body butter and if there is experiential reason to believe it will work to...

Second time today I'm coming across castor oil in relation to this research. I would have thought castor oil will rather contribute viscosity to the BB? I will have to study it more carefully. Thank you, cmzaha.

Thank you, earlene, I'll look now!
