I tried the following formula but it is too liquidy. Is there a way to make it thicker without weighing down the hair?

Aqua q.s

HEC 200k 0.5%

Glycerin 1%

Cetrimonium chloride 30% 0.3% (the minimum recommended usage by the supplier is 1%, but at this concentration it irritated my sister's scalp, maybe it is expired??)

Disodium EDTA 0.2%

Cetearyl alcohol 1%

Arlacel 165 1%

BTMS 50 1.5%

BHT 0.05%

Fragrance 0.4%

DMDM hydantoin 0.6%

I want to make a sun tanning dry oil without spf and would like to have feedbacks about this formula:

Coconut oil 33%

Sunflower oil 20%

Carrot oil (carrier) 20%

IPM 10%

Sweet almond oil 7%

Dimethicone 5%

Lanolin oil 3%

Shea butter 1%

Jojoba oil 1%

Aloe vera extract 0.1%

BHT 0.1%

I made 100g hand cream out of which 96.7g of ingredients was subjected to heat and the rest added during the cool down phase. In order to see how much water I lost for evaporation I calculated the total ingredient weight before heating and after the batch cooled down, and the difference between the former and the latter was 14.35g. Is that normal? 14.35 is around 15% of 96.7...

Last friday I didn't sleep all night as I was in the hospital with a relative who had an accident, and couldn't have any full night of sleep since saturday. I sleep from 11pm-12am to 4 am then sleep again from around 4.30 to 6.30 am. My body wakes up automatically when daylight comes. I feel less energetic as ususal and depressed. Any help will be appreciated!
