50 JOURNAL OF THE SOCIETY OF COSMETIC CHEMISTS that probably this work would hold true only for this type of formula, and that every individual formula would be an individual problem in itself. Generalizing, though, from the results of this work and other work that we have done, ! am convinced that for making this type of emulsion the best procedure is to pour the aqueous phase into the oil phase. ! have always liked that, although I know some textile authorities like the reverse method we also felt that the speed of stirring is probably a most important factor in the over-all emulsion formula.
