Hair Spray Formula and Face Application

Regarding your original formula for a hair spray:

• The expert (cosmeceutical7) is correct. Your original formula contains Light Cream Maker™ and sweet almond oil. These ingredients will create a cream or creamy liquid consistency, which is not suitable for spraying through a typical spray bottle.

Regarding the modified formula for spraying (removing sweet almond oil and Light Cream Maker™):

• As the expert suggested, removing the sweet almond oil and Light Cream Maker™ will result in a liquid mixture that can be used as a spray for hair. The remaining ingredients are water-soluble or dispersible and will form a liquid solution/dispersion suitable for spraying.

Regarding using the modified formula as a face spray:

The modified formula contains Double Hyaluron Liquid, Pro Vitamin B5, Hydro Protein, WaterLock™, Phenoxyethanol, and Disodium EDTA.

Based on the typical uses of these ingredients:

• Double Hyaluron Liquid and Pro Vitamin B5 are commonly used in both hair and skin care products for hydration and conditioning.
• Hydro Protein (such as Hydrolyzed Silk Protein or Hydrolyzed Pea Protein) is also used in both skin and hair formulations to provide amino acids and conditioning benefits.
• WaterLock™ (Polyquaternium-51) is designed to adhere to both skin and hair keratin to help prevent water loss and provide conditioning.
• Phenoxyethanol and Disodium EDTA are common cosmetic ingredients used as a preservative and chelating agent, respectively, and are suitable for both hair and skin products.

Since all the ingredients in the modified formula are generally used in skin care products, the modified formula can likely be used as a face spray. However, the specific type of Hydro Protein and WaterLock™ used, as well as the concentrations, can affect the feel and suitability for facial skin. Products specifically formulated for the face are optimized for facial skin needs and texture.

If you choose to use the modified formula as a face spray, it is highly recommended to perform a patch test on a small area of skin first to check for any irritation or adverse reaction.
