Does the Viscosity controller impact the processing times? - 14 Aug 2025

Yes, it can. Adding a viscosity controller reduces the water content in the lotion, which can slightly slow down absorption and how fast the molecules travel within the lash performing their job. This means you may need to extend processing times, depending on lash thickness and system used. The thicker the mix, the slower the active ingredients penetrate. That’s why it’s important to do flex checks during processing rather than relying solely on the timer.
