Finnish term or phrase: liettää (shampoo, etc.)
A description of shampoo production reads,

"[tuote valmistetaan] liettämällä seleenisulfidi runsasvaahtoiseen, nestemäiseen ja rasvattomaan shampoopohjaan, jonka pH on iholle sopiva."

I've found a couple of translations for "liettää", such as "to silt", but so far, I haven't found examples where these English words are used in the context of shampoo or other lotions. ("silting" seems to be something one does to a river, for example.)

Is there a precise technical equivalent of "liettää" (as used above) in English?

Thanks
