Ingredient Replacements

You asked about replacing two specific ingredients:

1. CytoFruit® Water Green Mandarin BIO99 (Citrus Nobilis Fruit Extract) which you want to replace with a soothing ingredient like Honey.
2. Celus-BI® Sphera 23 (Glycol/Sebacic Acid copolymer) which is a bead, and you want to replace it with Jojoba bead.

Here are the possibilities from the website:

Replacing CytoFruit® Water Green Mandarin BIO99 (Citrus Nobilis Fruit Extract)

While Honey can have soothing properties, finding a cosmetic-grade Honey product suitable for easy incorporation might be challenging. Based on the available products with soothing or anti-irritation effects, you could consider:

• Cucumber Extract (France): This extract is described as having a softening and irritation-reducing (soothing) effect, making it suitable for facial and eye area products.
• Licorice Extract (Glabridin 4.5%, Water-Soluble): This extract is known for its whitening and anti-irritation effects.

These extracts are water-soluble and can be incorporated into your formula to provide soothing benefits.

Replacing Celus-BI® Sphera 23 (Glycol/Sebacic Acid copolymer) beads

You suggested using Jojoba beads, which is a good idea for a natural exfoliating bead. We have a product that fits this description:

• White/Purple Petals Beads 9-15mm: The INCI name for these beads includes Jojoba Esters. They are ready-to-use beads that can be added to your formula in the final step.

This product appears to be a suitable Jojoba-based bead replacement for the Celus-BI® Sphera 23.

In summary, for a soothing effect, consider Cucumber Extract (France) or Licorice Extract (Glabridin 4.5%, Water-Soluble). For the beads, White/Purple Petals Beads 9-15mm containing Jojoba Esters are a good option available on the site.
