Facial Massage Oil: Ingredient Compatibility for Anti-Aging and Brightening

Subject: Re: Facial Massage Oil for Anti-Aging and Brightening

Hello,

Regarding your question about mixing ingredients for a facial massage oil targeting anti-aging and brightening, based on the staff's reply, here is the compatibility information for an oil-based formulation like a massage oil:

Ingredients that can be mixed in an oil base:

• Sweet Almond Oil (Refined) (ID 121): This can be used as your base oil.
• Capryloyl Salicylic Acid (LHA) EZ™ (ID 768): Can be included. It offers benefits for skin renewal and brightening.
• MSH White Absorb™ (ID 881): Can be included for its brightening properties.
• Coenzyme Q10 Extra (ID 483): Can be included for its antioxidant and anti-aging benefits.
• Bisabolol (German Chamomile Extract) (ID 78): Can be included for its soothing properties, which can be beneficial when using active ingredients.
• Perfect-C™ (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate) (ID 499): Can be included. This is an oil-soluble form of Vitamin C known for its brightening and anti-aging effects.

Ingredients that cannot be mixed directly in an oil base for this type of formulation:

• Myristyl Nicotinate (Pro-Niacin™) (ID 487): As the staff mentioned, this ingredient cannot dissolve directly in oil.
• Retinal (Retinaldehyde) (ID 942): While it can dissolve in oil, the staff advised that it requires a thicker formulation (like a cream) to prevent precipitation and maintain efficacy. A thin massage oil is not suitable for Retinal.

Therefore, you can create a facial massage oil using Sweet Almond Oil, Capryloyl Salicylic Acid (LHA) EZ™, MSH White Absorb™, Coenzyme Q10 Extra, Bisabolol, and Perfect-C™.

Please remember to check the recommended usage rate for each ingredient on its product page on the website to ensure safe and effective formulation.

Thank you.
