Adding Firming Ingredients to Cream
Question
I have an existing cream formula and would like to add ingredients to give it a firming effect. Could you suggest suitable ingredients and provide their recommended usage rates and mixing instructions?
Answer
Adding Firming Ingredients to Your Cream
Based on your goal to add a firming effect to your cream formula, and the previous discussion indicating that specific firming agents weren't clearly identified in the original ingredient list, here are some ingredients you can consider incorporating:
FlashTenser™ (Quick Skin Tenser): This ingredient is designed to provide an instant skin tightening effect. You can typically see results within about 5 minutes, and the effect lasts for several hours until washed off. It's suitable for reducing the appearance of small wrinkles temporarily. You can add FlashTenser™ to your cream formula at a usage rate of 1-10%. It should be added in the final step of your formulation process, ensuring the temperature is below 40°C.
YogurtFirm™ (Yogurt Extract): For a longer-term approach to reducing wrinkles and improving firmness, YogurtFirm™ is an option. Studies have shown visible wrinkle reduction results over several weeks of use. This ingredient can be used in anti-aging products at a usage rate of 5-20%. Like FlashTenser™, it should be added in the final step when the temperature is below 40°C. Note that YogurtFirm™ should be stored in the refrigerator.
To achieve both immediate and gradual firming benefits, you could consider incorporating both FlashTenser™ and YogurtFirm™ into your formula, following the recommended usage rates and mixing instructions for each.
Remember to always test new formulations for stability and efficacy.
