Question
I have a Super Anti Aging Serum formula and would like recommendations for optimization. The formula I am currently using is as follows (for 100g):
- Distilled Water: 51g
- Phospholipid: 2g
- Pro Polymer: 0.8g
- Phenoxyethanol: 0.5g
- Matrixyl 3000: 5g
- Ceramide: 10g
- Safe B3: 10g
- beta glucan: 10g
- Bifida Ferment Lysate: 10g
Could you please provide suggestions to improve its anti-aging effectiveness, considering my normal skin type and history of sun exposure?
Answer
Based on the staff's recommendations for your Super Anti Aging Serum formula (100g):
- Reduce:
- Ceramide: Reduce from 10g to 5g (or 5%). The staff notes that using a very high amount may not significantly increase efficacy compared to the cost.
- Beta Glucan: Reduce from 10g to 5g (or 5%). Similar to Ceramide, reducing the amount is suggested for cost-effectiveness without losing significant benefits.
- Add:
- Ingredients to promote skin cell turnover: Choose one or two from the following options to help strengthen the skin, especially given your history of sun exposure:
- Willow Bark Extract: 5%
- Pumpkin Renew: 5%
- Yeast Resurface: 3%
- FruitPeel™: 5%
- Japanese Cedar: 1%
- Reservoir-Tech: Add 3%. This ingredient helps to retain active ingredients within the skin for a longer-lasting effect.
- Ingredients to promote skin cell turnover: Choose one or two from the following options to help strengthen the skin, especially given your history of sun exposure:
These adjustments are suggested to enhance the anti-aging benefits and help strengthen your skin, taking into account your normal skin type and goal of improving skin resilience against factors like sun exposure.
