Guar Gum is derived from the ground endosperm of the guar plant, Cyamopsis tetragonolobus belonging to the family Leguminosae. The guar plant is mainly grown in India and Pakistan from the month of July to December. At harvest time, the seeds are extracted from the pod of the plant and then ground into guar gum.
Guar Gum powder is a water soluble additive. When making cosmetics and adding Guar Gum powder to a mixture it is best to add small quantities at a time. Be sure to stir for a while after each addition. If Guar Gum is added too quickly or in large quantities, it will gel or clump together. Do not use if your formula contains Borax or Calcium.
