Question
- Can Pure MSM™ and Safe-B3™ be used together in a formulation?
- What is the heat tolerance of Pure MSM™ and Safe-B3™?
- What other ingredients can be effectively paired with Pure MSM™ for oil control and acne concerns?
Answer
Heat Stability and Compatibility of Pure MSM™ and Safe-B3™
Both Pure MSM™ (Methylsulfonylmethane) and Safe-B3™ (Vitamin B3, Niacinamide) have comparable heat resistance and can withstand temperatures up to 80°C. However, it is recommended to avoid prolonged heating during formulation to maintain their efficacy.
Pure MSM™ and Safe-B3™ can be used together in the same formulation.
Ingredients to Pair with Pure MSM™ for Oil Control and Acne
In addition to Safe-B3™, several other ingredients can be effectively paired with Pure MSM™ to help control oiliness and address acne concerns:
- Zinc PCA: Helps reduce skin oiliness, accelerates acne scar healing, stimulates collagen, and has antibacterial properties.
- Royal Jelly Extract 10-hydroxydecanoic acid: Effective in reducing facial oiliness, controlling acne, and providing antibacterial action.
- Pure-Oleanolic™ (Oleanolic Acid): Works by inhibiting the enzyme responsible for excess oil production, making it useful for reducing skin oiliness and acne.
- Sebum-Reg™ (Capryloyl Glycine): Reduces skin oiliness by controlling the 5-alpha-reductase process and also helps inhibit bacteria associated with acne.
- Pep®-Acne (Oligopeptide-10): An antimicrobial peptide that targets acne-causing bacteria.
- AcnePLEX™: A complex that helps restore the skin barrier, contains antibacterial agents like Royal Jelly extract, and includes Salicylic Acid for killing acne bacteria and exfoliation.
- QD-365 Anti-Acne Complex: A water-soluble complex that reduces acne inflammation, inhibits multiple types of acne bacteria, and helps reduce acne scars.
- Acne-TT™ (Standardized Tea Tree Extract For Acne): Contains a high concentration of Terpinen-4-ol, known for its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties effective against acne bacteria and potentially helping with sebum regulation.
- Actin AC: Offers a 5-in-1 solution for acne by regulating sebum, reducing inflammation and hyperpigmentation, normalizing keratinization, and reducing bacterial populations. It pairs well with Niacinamide and Salicylic Acid.
Combining Pure MSM™ with one or more of these ingredients can create a comprehensive formulation for managing oily and acne-prone skin.
