Aloe Vera Gel Formulation for Hydration and Cellulite Reduction

Here is a simple body gel formulation focused on providing hydration and helping to reduce the appearance of cellulite, using the main ingredients you requested and based on the staff's recommendations.

Ingredients:

• Aloe Vera Gel (Heavy): 92%
• Glycopure™ (Glycolic Acid (AHA) 100% Powder): 3%
• Glycerin (USP/Food Grade): 5%

Instructions:

1. Weigh the desired amount of Aloe Vera Gel (Heavy).
2. Weigh the Glycerin and add it to the Aloe Vera gel base. Mix well.
3. Weigh the Glycopure™ (Glycolic Acid) powder. Dissolve the Glycolic Acid powder in a small amount of clean water (or a portion of the Aloe Vera gel base). Stir until completely dissolved.
4. Add the prepared Glycolic Acid solution to the gel mixture. Stir until homogeneous.
5. Check and adjust the pH of the gel. It should be adjusted to be between 3.5 - 4.0 for Glycolic Acid to be effective (you may need a pH adjuster like Triethanolamine or Sodium Hydroxide dissolved in a small amount of water. Add gradually while stirring and measuring the pH until the desired value is reached).

Ingredient Explanation:

• Aloe Vera Gel (Heavy): Serves as the main gel base, providing hydration, soothing properties, and containing Vitamin B5 and Allantoin to nourish the skin.
• Glycopure™ (Glycolic Acid): An AHA that helps exfoliate old skin cells, stimulate new cell turnover, and can help reduce the appearance of cellulite. It should be used at a 3% concentration as recommended for beginners, and the pH should be adjusted to the appropriate range.
• Glycerin (USP/Food Grade): A humectant that helps draw moisture into the skin, making it feel soft and hydrated.

This is a basic formulation. You can modify or add other water-soluble extracts as desired to add specific properties to your gel.
