Formulation separated

I've added saliguard into my lotion, and the lotion immediately changed into runny texture, the following day water and oils separated, what have I done wrong?

Hi Precious, this sounds like a pH problem, where the lower pH of the preservative caused the lotion to split. This only happens when the lotion is already unstable. Unfortunately without knowing your formula its a bit difficult to troubleshoot what the exact issue is. But I recommend checking and adjusting your pH.
