I want to make 200g of facial essence (`น้ำตบ`) but don't have equipment or a scale. I plan to order ingredients in exact amounts needed. I intend to use it before bed for hydration and slight skin tone adjustment. Texture is not important. I will not add `สารกันเสีย` (the minimum purchase quantity is much larger than needed) and plan to store it in the refrigerator instead. I have listed the ingredients I plan to buy. Could you please check their suitability? * `Double Hyaluron Liquid` 10 g = 5% * `Safe B3`. 10 g = 5% * `GlucoBright`. 8 g = 4% * `PiteraEx`(Sacch.) 2 g = 1% * `น้ำกลั่นปราศจากเชื้อ`. 170 g = 85% *Total* 200 g = 100%

I have formulated a cream, and when I use it, I experience stinging and itching in areas with wounds or redness upon application. After using it for a while, when I return from work and use makeup remover to cleanse my face, my face feels sensitive and stings.

If so, I would like to adjust or reduce the amount. * Glycerin * Propylene Glycol * GlucoBright™ (Acetyl glucosamine) * Double Hyaluron Liquid * Ethylhexylglycerin * Safe-B3™ (Vitamin B3, Niacinamide, Switzerland) * Disodium EDTA * Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (eq.

If yes, does it need to be diluted to 70% first?
I want to **produce a hand sanitizer gel for killing germs and bacteria, achieving 99.9% effectiveness**. The gel texture should dry and absorb quickly within 20-30 seconds, providing a soft and dry feel without being sticky. I would like the gel to have a light blue color like Light Blue Mica and a mild, non-pungent scent (without using Fragrance to mask the Alcohol smell). I have researched and found ingredients and formulas based on discussions on myskinrecipes and have identified a total of 6 ingredients: 1. Ethyl Alcohol (99.9%, 200 Proof, Perfumer Grade) 2. Pro Polymer 3. Glycerin 99.5% 4. Aloe Vera Extract (10:1 FullAssay™) 5. MOIST24 (Glycereth-26) 6. Purified Water I have developed four formulas I would like to test: * Formula 1: 1(75%) + 2(0.5%) + 3(5%) + 6(19.5%) * Formula 2: 1(75%) + 2(0.5%) + 4(5%) + 6(19.5%) * Formula 3: 1(75%) + 2(0.5%) + 5(5%) + 6(19.5%) * Formula 4: 1(75%) + 2(0.5%) + 3(5%) + 4(2%) + 5(3%) + 6(15.5%) Each formula varies only in the ingredients intended to make the skin soft, moisturized, and non-sticky after use. I would like to ask for advice on which formula (1-4) is most suitable. Also, if I want the gel to have a light blue color like Alcohol and a mild scent to mask the pungent smell of Alcohol, what ingredients and percentages should I use? Finally, is it possible to order commercial production in the future?

Magnesium Stearate 7% 3. Titanium Dioxide SuperCoverage Pigment 25% 4. RiceSorb 15% 5. BB Micro Silk 10% 6. Pearl Purple Mica (A) Is this formula mixable?

Hello, I have three questions seeking advice: 1. Regarding body cream or gel bases, I need two types: * Type 1: A cream or gel base that is colorless, odorless, and has no other specific properties. * Type 2: A cream or gel base similar to Type 1 but with added cooling sensation (while keeping color, odor, and other characteristics the same as Type 1). Do you have these types available? 2. If I want to make a body cream or gel cooling but without using menthol or camphor due to potential muscle side effects, are there other cooling agents available? Do you have these available? 3. Can I mix `Freeze Me` or `Menthyl Lactate` directly into the base? If mixed, will the base become cool without changing color or odor? Is my understanding correct? Which base model should be used? Thank you for your advice.
