Answer
Vitamin C E Ferulic Kit
The Vitamin C E Ferulic product is likely a kit designed for you to create your own formulation, rather than a ready-to-use finished product.
Adding Ectoin and Water-Soluble Q10
Yes, you can add Ectoin and the water-soluble Q10 to your formulation, keeping the following points in mind:
- Ectoin: Adding 2% Ectoin is within the recommended usage rate (0.5-2.0%). Ectoin is water-soluble and stable across a wide pH range (1-9) and temperatures up to 80°C, making it compatible with a Vitamin C serum base.
- Water-Soluble Q10: Adding 0.5% of the 10% encapsulated water-soluble Coenzyme Q10 is within its recommended usage rate (0.1-1%). This form of Q10 is dispersed in water and may cause the final product to appear cloudy. It is crucial to add this ingredient during the final mixing phase when the formulation temperature is below 40°C. The product description also notes that using ActiveProtecTM UV + ActiveProtecTM OX is recommended to enhance the long-term stability of Q10 in the final product. You should consider if your base formula provides adequate stabilization for Q10 or if these additional stabilizers are needed.
