I tried dissolving Caprylhydroxamic Acid preservative in Butylene Glycol as indicated, but it precipitated as white flakes instead of fully dissolving. When I added it to the water phase, it remained as flakes. Heating it caused it to dissolve, but it turned back into flakes after cooling. Is this normal for this ingredient? (The formula I'm making is a very liquid serum.) Or is this preservative more suitable for cream/gel textures? I'm very confused.
Could you please provide a formula for a mineral water spray to be used after applying makeup? Thank you.

Can Easy Cream Maker™ be mixed directly into BioSulphur™ EQ? 2. If BioSulphur™ EQ is added to the day cream formula at 1-2%, will the color of the cream be too dark and problematic? Will it still be effective for reducing inflammation at this lower concentration?
Hello, Could you please review the following serum formulation and advise on how to adjust it to achieve a lighter texture and faster absorption? After using the current formulation, I feel it takes a long time to spread and absorb into the skin. How should I modify the formula to make the serum absorb easily, feel less sticky, and be more pleasant to use?

I need formulation advice for two products: 1) A non-greasy serum containing SymWhite (Phenylethyl Resorcinol) and other whitening agents, with a penetration enhancer to help active ingredients penetrate deeply into the skin. The serum should be fast-absorbing, suitable for all skin types, intended for bulk production and general sale with Thai FDA approval. 2) An oil-in-water whitening cream for morning and evening use, designed to have a synergistic effect with the serum. The cream should primarily contain Deoxy arbutin and Hydro White. Please recommend additional ingredients that block melanin synthesis through all pathways.
I'm formulating a cream using Light Cream Maker at 3% and ingredients containing approximately 10% electrolytes. When mixing with a hand-held milk frother for testing, the mixture doesn't seem smooth, and after applying to the skin, it pills (becomes flaky/rubbery). The issue might be insufficient mixing. For producing batches of 1-3 kg, which type of mixer is suitable to prevent pilling? Would an Overhead stirrer be sufficient, or is a Homogenizer better? I understand Light Cream Maker has a mixing speed limit.
What whitening agents can be used in a body butter formulation, and what factors, such as solubility and the type of body butter base (emulsion-based or anhydrous), should be considered when selecting and incorporating them?
Could you please review this formula and advise if any adjustments are needed? I am making a 'strong' skin whitening gel that I want to be fast-absorbing and comfortable, not sticky.

Will this formula be sticky?

I am trying to create a cream formulation with the following ingredients and percentages: gamma Oryzanol (Rice Bran Extract) 0.5% Mineral Oil (Paraffinum Liquidum) light grade 5% Disodium EDTA 0.2% Natural Moisturizing Amino Acids 4% Butylene Glycol 15% Mild Preserved Eco 1% Distilled Water remaining amount Phospholipid 2% Warp Cream Maker™ 7% Phenylethyl Resorcinol 0.5% ActiveProtec™ OX 0.6% My mixing method is: Mix the oil phase first, then the water phase, then add the water phase to the oil phase, then add Phospholipid and Warp Cream Maker™, blend until homogeneous, then add Phenylethyl Resorcinol and ActiveProtec™ OX, blend until combined, and finally add Mild Preserved Eco and blend until combined. Is this mixing procedure correct? I want a cream that helps with moisturizing and skin brightening.
I would like to know what ingredients are needed to formulate perfume using coconut oil. What are the required ratios? I plan to use Fragrance oil at 25-30%. I would like to ask if using only: Fractionated Coconut Oil 70-75% Fragrance Oil 25-30% is sufficient, or if other ingredients are needed. Additional questions: 1. Currently, I am using regular cold-pressed coconut oil with fragrance oil, but I observe separation between the fragrance oil and the coconut oil. If I use Fractionated Coconut Oil, will I still encounter the issue of the fragrance oil separating from the coconut oil base? 2. Will some fragrance oils cause cloudiness when mixed with the Fractionated Coconut Oil base? 3. If used with a spray head, will it spray out as a fine mist? Or will it be viscous? If it is viscous, are there any ingredients that can help it spray out as a fine mist?
