Answer
Making Vitamin C E Ferulic Serum into a Gel
Yes, it is possible to change the texture of the Vitamin C E Ferulic serum from a liquid to a gel.
To achieve a gel texture, you can use AnyGel (Dehydroxanthan Gum). Based on recommendations, a usage rate of 0.5-1.0% of AnyGel can help create a suitable gel consistency. The product description for AnyGel suggests a general usage rate of 1-2.5% for water-gel products.
Mixing Method:
- Add the recommended amount of AnyGel to your serum base.
- You will need to use a blender or stirrer to mix the AnyGel until it is fully dissolved and the gel texture forms. This may take around 10-15 minutes with a blending speed of at least 500 RPM using a Dissolver/Disperser head.
A gel texture is generally suitable for use with a pump bottle, which should be more convenient than a dropper for a thicker consistency.
