Continue to stir until clear homogenous phase. Add other remaining phase B ingredients one by one to water phase while continuing to stir. Begin heating both vessels until the temperature of both vessels is between 80-85°C. Once a 80-85°C temperature has been achieved, add phase A to phase B slowly while continuing to stir. Remove from heat and homogenize the resulting emulsion for three minutes.
