Answer
Based on the staff's reply, the formula you provided is compatible.
Here is the formula you listed:
- Distilled Water 45.7g
- Triethanolamine (TEA) 2.5g
- Ferulic Acid 0.5g
- Panthenol (Vitamin B5) 0.5g
- Ethoxydiglycol 20g
- Propylene Glycol 10g
- Glycerin 3g
- Light Cream Maker 1%

The staff mentioned that L-ascorbic acid might cause the texture to soften slightly, but you can adjust by adding more Light Cream Maker to compensate.
