Amigel & Laponite Gel - Which gel is better to use?  It is often just a matter of personal preference. Amigel will accept a higher amount of additional ingredients, if this is required. It can also be thinned down to a more water-like consistency. Amigel also has a relatively ‘slippery’ feel on the skin. Laponite creates a stiffer gel with a nice “astringent” feel when applied. If 15% or less of additional ingredients are to be added, Laponite is a fine choice. Try experimenting with both gels! Amigel can be diluted to an almost water-like consistency. At a concentration of only 0.2% (that would be one part Amigel to nine parts water), up to 10% of additional ingredients can be added, to create a sprayable or pumpable preparation. Or, you can create a pumpable ‘serum’ preparation by using a 1% concentration of Amigel (this would be one part Amigel to one part water). In making your own creams and lotions, Amigel can be added to help stabilise and emulsify oily ingredients, and gives a beautiful “skin feel” to your creams as well.
