singleyellowrose Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I normally use Hydrovance in one of my products in place of glycerin. Now it seems alot of suppliers no longer carry it.Apparently, over time it becomes unstable.Has anyone used HoneyQuat in place of Hydrovance and if so how does it feel?

singleyellowrose Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 weird... I wonder what that time frame is for the hydrovance? I get mine from MMSI don't know. I use it in one product for summertime only but I still don't want to have to deal with that issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBE Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 To me, it's not the same. Hydrovance gives a sorta smooth glide in the feel... when I use honeyquat, I don't get that glide... the after-feel is more... "dewy-powdery" with honeyquat. Does that make sense to you? lol I love both. Both are conditioning and feel great in lotions/butters/creams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBE Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I've used them together a few times. Each time I did, it came out ok... but my skin felt wet after applying it... especially when I would step outside. Not a great feeling in the summer. Ugh. But I live in a high humidity climate... so maybe that had something to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
