Standard capsules are not suitable for pure liquid formulations, as they are optimally designed for powders or semi-solid ingredients. However, HPMC (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose) vegetarian capsules are compatible with certain liquid substances, such as essential oils. It is important to note that aqueous-based liquids (e.g., water) are not recommended, as they may compromise the capsule’s structural integrity

We recommend compatibility testing before use to ensure product stability and performance.
