Ingredients for Soft Skin in a Clear Glycerin Base

Achieving soft skin in a clear glycerin base involves adding ingredients that boost moisture, improve skin barrier function, or enhance skin elasticity and structure. Based on your question and the previous discussion, here are some ingredients suitable for a clear base that can help make skin feel soft:

• Natural Moisturizing Amino Acids (e.q. Prodew 400): Mimics the skin's natural moisturizing factors (NMF), helping to keep skin soft and hydrated. It is water-soluble and suitable for clear formulations.
• MOIST72™: A plant-based sugar molecule that provides high, continuous, and long-lasting moisture to the skin, similar to NMF. It is water-soluble and effective for hydration.
• MOIST24: A humectant that helps retain moisture throughout the day and can also improve the texture of the formula, making it feel pleasant and absorb faster. It is water-soluble.
• WaterSoft™ (PEG/PPG-17/6 copolymer): A water-soluble emollient that helps make the skin feel soft and smooth, ideal for water-based formulas.
• UltraMild Aquaporin™ (Glyceryl Glucoside, Low-Sticky): Works to maintain the skin's moisture level, improving elasticity and smoothness. It is water-soluble and gentle.
• Hydrolyzed Elastin (From Fish): An important component for skin flexibility and elasticity. This hydrolyzed form is water-soluble and can help the skin look moisturized.
• Pep®-Max12 (12 Peptides Mixture, 2200ppm): A blend of peptides that can stimulate collagen and improve skin firmness and elasticity, contributing to a softer feel. It is a water-soluble liquid.

These ingredients can be incorporated into a clear glycerin base to enhance its skin-softening properties by providing hydration and supporting the skin's natural structure.
