Calculating Lactic Acid 88% Amount for Body Formula

To mix Lactic Acid (AHA) 88% into a 100g body formula, you need to determine the desired final concentration of Lactic Acid in your formula. As suggested previously, it's recommended to start with a lower concentration, such as 10%, especially if you are new to using it.

The calculation method is as follows:
Amount of Lactic Acid 88% needed (in grams) = (Total formula weight in grams / Concentration of Lactic Acid raw material) * Desired final concentration (%)

For a 100g formula and a desired final concentration of 10% Lactic Acid:
Amount of Lactic Acid 88% needed = (100 g / 88%) * 10%
Amount of Lactic Acid 88% needed = (100 / 88) * 10 = 1.136 * 10 = 11.36 grams

So, for a 100g body formula with a target of 10% Lactic Acid concentration, you would use 11.36 grams of Lactic Acid 88%. The remaining amount (100g - 11.36g = 88.64g) would be your base formula (lotion, cream, etc.).

If you want a different final concentration, simply replace '10%' in the calculation with your desired percentage.
