What usage rate of tuberose flower wax is recommended in cosmetic formulas?
Recommended usage rates depend on the product type. Start at the lower end and adjust by trial:
| Product Type | Recommended Usage |
|---|---|
| Solid perfume / balm | 5–20% |
| Lip balm | 5–10% |
| Body cream / lotion (oil phase) | 1–5% |
| Scented candle | 3–10% |
| Soap / shower gel | 1–3% |
| Perfume oil concentrate | 1–5% as fixative |
Formulation Tips
- Melt first: warm the wax to 55–62 °C with the oil phase before emulsifying
- Add at low shear to avoid air incorporation
- Test stability at 40 °C / 45 °C for 4 weeks for your specific formula
- Aroma is intense — 1–3% already gives a noticeable tuberose note in most bases
We provide a formulation starter sheet with melting, blending and stability guidance for each category.
