The basic formula I used in this W/O emulsion:
40% butters
10% lecithin
20% oil (and oil soluble extracts)
30% water (and water soluble extracts/preservative)

To improve the final texture of this formula, I would stir to a lower temperature in the cold water bath. I stirred to about 19 degrees Celsius, but it wasn't at trace. The final texture is slightly grainy. To make texture extra smooth, stir to trace, which would be achieved by stirring to a lower temperature. This would ensure the butters and oils become homogenous and prevent graininess.

Follow this basic formula with oils, butters and extracts you choose. Lecithin is tricky to work with so use a very basic formula and ingredients when you first try this type of emulsion.
