• Holding ingredients before they are added to a formulation

How to Use

For Weighing Ingredients

Place the clean and dry watch glass onto a digital scale.

Tare the scale to zero before adding the ingredient.

Add powders, pigments, cosmetic actives, or other small ingredients gradually until the required weight is reached.

The curved surface helps keep small quantities contained while allowing them to be transferred easily into a formulation.

For Ingredient Preparation

Use the watch glass to temporarily hold pre-weighed ingredients before adding them to your main formulation.

It is particularly useful when a recipe contains several small ingredients that need to be weighed separately before mixing.

For Covering a Beaker

The watch glass may be placed over a suitably sized beaker as a loose cover to help protect the contents from dust, splashes, or contamination during short-term laboratory or formulation work.

It should not be treated as an airtight lid.

For Evaporation or Observation

Small quantities of liquid may be placed on the watch glass for observation or controlled evaporation where appropriate.

Only expose the glass to heat if its heat resistance and glass specification have been confirmed.

Cleaning Instructions

1. Wash after use with warm water and a suitable detergent.
2. Rinse thoroughly to remove all ingredient residue.
3. Sanitise where required for cosmetic or laboratory work.
4. Allow to dry completely before reuse or storage.
5. Inspect for cracks, chips, or damage before use.

Care Instructions

• Handle carefully to prevent breakage.
• Avoid dropping onto hard surfaces.
• Do not use if chipped or cracked.
• Avoid sudden temperature changes unless the glass is confirmed heat-resistant.
• Store separately from heavy equipment that may damage the glass.
• Keep clean and dry between uses.
