Formula Review

Based on the ingredients and their typical properties, this formulation appears generally compatible, but there are a few points to consider regarding ingredient concentrations and the mixing process.

Ingredient Compatibility

Most of the ingredients are compatible within a standard cosmetic emulsion.

Emulsification: You are using Satin Cream Maker™ as the primary emulsifier, supported by Phospholipid. Satin Cream Maker™ is a heat-free emulsifier suitable for up to 25% oil, and your total oil phase (Flaxseed Oil 10% + Algae Oil 3% = 13%) is within this limit. Phospholipid acts as a co-emulsifier and penetration enhancer, which is a good addition.
Water and Oil Phases: The formula contains both water-soluble ingredients (Albumin egg whites, Rice Vitamin, Snow Mushroom Hyaluron, Yeast Radiance™, WhiteCumin™ 2x, Mild Preserved Eco™, Water) and oil-soluble ingredients (Flaxseed Oil, Algae Oil น้ำมันสาหร่ายใต้ทะเล Laminaria Digitata Extract, Mint / Rose / Lemon). The emulsifier system should effectively combine these phases.
pH: Several ingredients (Rice Vitamin, Yeast Radiance™, Mild Preserved Eco™, Satin Cream Maker™) have specific pH ranges for optimal stability and effectiveness. You should aim to formulate the cream within the pH range of 4.0-6.5 to ensure compatibility with Rice Vitamin and Yeast Radiance™.
Temperature Sensitivity: Flaxseed Oil, Algae Oil น้ำมันสาหร่ายใต้ทะเล Laminaria Digitata Extract, Yeast Radiance™, and Phospholipid are sensitive to high heat. Satin Cream Maker™ is a cold-process emulsifier. Mild Preserved Eco™ can tolerate some heat but is best added later. It is recommended to use a cold process or low heat (below 40°C, especially when adding Phospholipid) during mixing to preserve the integrity and effectiveness of these ingredients. Phospholipid also requires high shear mixing for proper dispersion.
Concentrations:
- Albumin egg whites is included at 2%, which is higher than the typically recommended usage rate of 0.5-1.0%. Using a higher concentration might lead to sedimentation or affect the texture without providing significant additional benefits.
- Snow Mushroom Hyaluron is at 1%, which is also higher than the recommended 0.1-0.5%. While it is a beneficial humectant, this concentration might impact the final texture or feel.

Satin Cream Maker™ Absorption

Satin Cream Maker™ is known to produce a cream with a soft and smooth texture. While the product description doesn't explicitly state "fast absorption," a soft and smooth texture generally correlates with good spreadability and a non-greasy feel on the skin. This type of texture tends to be absorbed relatively quickly compared to heavier or richer cream bases. The overall absorption will also be influenced by the types and amounts of oils and other ingredients in the formula, but Satin Cream Maker™ contributes to a pleasant, potentially fast-absorbing feel.

Recommendations

Consider reducing the concentration of Albumin egg whites to 0.5-1.0% and Snow Mushroom Hyaluron to 0.1-0.5% to stay within recommended usage rates and potentially improve texture and stability.
Ensure your mixing process minimizes heat exposure, especially when incorporating the oils, Yeast Radiance™, and Phospholipid. Follow the specific mixing instructions for Phospholipid, including using room temperature water/oil and sufficient blending speed and time.
Check and adjust the final pH of the cream to be within the 4.0-6.5 range.

Overall, the ingredient combination is promising for a nourishing and brightening face cream, provided the concentrations and mixing method are optimized.
