Erratum: Cetearyl alcohol wasn't a great example of a blended material that results in a calculation issue, since it's usually kept as an INCI name on its own, sorry! A better example would be something like Hallstar NCD-20, which has 50-80% cetearyl alcohol and 20-50% ceteareth-20 (the exact percentages are a trade secret).
