Hello, I have questions about using **Natural Color (Beetroot or Yeast)**. If I want to mix it with **Vaseline** to add color, is it possible? * How should I mix it? Do I need to heat it first, or can I just stir it into the Vaseline? * I saw that the colorant should be used at temperatures below 60°C. How does this affect mixing with Vaseline? Also, could you provide a formula for a colored lip balm that is suitable for very sensitive skin? Thank you.

I would like to ask about an issue with my sunscreen cream formula. The formula contains Zinc Oxide EasyDisperse (5%), Titanium Dioxide EasyDisperse (5%), and PMMA Booster (5%), but the SPF value obtained is only 4.5. I would like to inquire why the SPF value is low. From studying the ingredient information on the website, I expected to get 25*2 = 50. I would also like to consult on how to solve this problem to increase the SPF value to 30-50. Thank you.

Hello Admin, I am currently selling DIY products for people who want to make their own Alcohol Gel or Liquid Alcohol formulas. The starting formula I am using is the one from the Department of Medical Sciences (DMSC). The target calculation for this formula is: * `ethanol 95%`: 1000 ml * `Glycerine`: 5 ml * `Propylene Glycol`: 6 ml * `Lanolin 2%`: 12 ml * `TEA`: 0.8 ml * `Carbopol 940`: 5 Gram * `RO water`: 225 ml * `Vitamin E`: 0.1% I have added a blend of Essential Oil (Orange Oil + Lemon Oil + Eucalyptus + Tea Tree) at 1 part each, combined with White Musk at 1 part per 1 part of the total Essential Oil blend. This is to add fragrance and increase advertising value by mentioning extracts. I am interested in modifying the formula to give it a more **luxurious image**. I want the gel texture to be **soft** and have **skin conditioning** properties, providing an **immediate soft feel** and a **film-forming texture**. The ingredients I am interested in adding are: * สารสกัดว่านหางจรเข้ * MOIST24 * Hydrolyzed silk * water lock * Vitamin B For the gel formula, could you please advise which of these ingredients can be added and at what percentage? Or do you have any other recommended ingredients? I also need another fragrance for mixing, a fresh, clean, and refreshing scent. For the liquid formula (based on the DMSC formula provided), are there any additional ingredients from the list above that I need to source? Please advise so I can place an order. Thank you very much.
