I have the following formula: Alumina 3 SelectSorb™ (PMMA Oil Absorber) 5 QuikBlur™ (Polymethylsilsesquioxane Solution) 4 Polyethylene Wax (Soft) 2 Water-in-Oil EZ™ 3 LipidSoft™ Disperse 5 Allantoin 0.5 Calcium Pantothenate 2.00 Poly-Protect (Hydrolyzed Sclerotium Gum) 1 Mild Preserved Eco™ (Preservative-Free) 1 SPF Protect Ultra II 10 Zinc Oxide 35nm Liquid 5 PMMA Booster (SPF/Color Booster) 5 Can I make a sunscreen with this formula? Also, regarding Water-in-Oil EZ™, is it true that I can use any amount of water in the formula?
I am planning to make a serum and have the following questions: 1. Regarding the penetration enhancer, Phospholipid (Hydrogenated Lecithin): Based on what I've read, does the formula need to contain both water and oil? 2. If I have MySkinRecipes mix the ingredients for me, do I need to add Disodium EDTA? (The water that the system adds to complete 100% is water that does not require adding Disodium EDTA into the formula, correct?) 3. Is the following formula feasible? I would like a slightly viscous texture that doesn't flow like water (it's acceptable if it takes some time to absorb, but not too long). **Ingredients:** * Pal-GHK, Pal-GQPR (eq. Matrixyl 3000) 3% * Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (eq. Argireline) 10% * Energy-Blend™ (Caffeine+Adenosine+Vitamin B3) 5% * Calcium Pantothenate 3% * DMAE (SkinTight MD™) Liquid 3% * Mild Preserved Eco™ (Preservative-Free) 2% * Phospholipid 2% * Argan Oil (Organic - Virgin - Deodorized) 5% * Distilled Water (Sterile) 67% 4. Does this initial formula have any odor? 5. What kind of packaging will MySkinRecipes use for this formula if they mix it for me? Are there example pictures available? 6. After payment, how long does it take to receive the order? (This is for a test batch). Thank you.
Based on the following formula, are there any issues or problems that need to be addressed before proceeding with production?

I would like to ask about the formula for 3% Linked Papain. If this is used as a daily cream, will it cause excessive exfoliation? Or is it more suitable to use it as a wash-off mask instead?
I would like to ask if it is possible to use both molecular weights of PolyGlutamic Acid (High Molecule Weight and the other one) together in a formulation. If so, what percentage should I use for each, or what is the total percentage recommended?
I would like to create a light essence formula to reduce shallow melasma, dark spots, and acne marks. I have drafted the following formula with percentages: 1.

Ethoxydiglycol 2.60% My questions are: 1. Are the ingredients compatible? 2. Safe-B3 has a pH of 6-7.5. Will this affect the formula? 3. Can I mix ingredients 1-12 in order?
I purchased 10% Niacinamide from another brand, but it doesn't come with a penetration enhancer. I plan to buy Ethoxydiglycol separately to use. Can I mix it into Aloe Vera Gel Lite? If so, can I also add other active ingredients myself? I want benefits for brightening, anti-wrinkle, and anti-irritation. The ingredients and percentages I plan to use are: 1. Licorice Extract (Glabridin 4.5%, Water-Soluble) 2% 2. Ume Extract (Anti-Glycation) 2% 3. Ectoine (from Bio-fermentation) 2% 4. Pal-GHK, Pal-GQPR (eq. Matrixyl 3000) 3% 5.

Also, can it be mixed manually? Thank you.
