I am making liquid hand soap and want to mix in gold leaf. However, the gold sinks and settles. I would like to know if there are any substances that can lift the gold leaf to keep it suspended in the liquid soap.

I would like to inquire about the potential effects of the following serum formulation on the skin: **Active Ingredient Percentages:** * Sodium Hyaluronate Solution = 25% * Vitamim C (`L-ascorbic acid`) = 15% * Argireline C (PD010) = 3% * Vitamin E - Acetate Care = 0.1% * Ferulic Acid = 0.1% * Tego Cosmo C250 = 1% * Lactil = 0.15% *Note: Dissolved in Glycols.* Based on the formula above, if the serum has a pH of 3.5 (clear gel) and does not cause a slight warming or tingling sensation on the face upon application, unlike other brands I've used which do cause a slight warmth or tingling, does this indicate that the `L-ascorbic acid` is still stable? Furthermore, when having products manufactured by an OEM factory, how can I verify that they have included the active ingredients at the percentages they stated? The active ingredients in this formula are included in relatively high amounts, but the perceived results differ from many brands I've tried that claim the same or lower amounts of active ingredients. *P.S. I am manufacturing with an OEM factory but purchasing some ingredients from Myskin.*
