Mixing Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate and L-Ascorbic Acid

Mixing L-Ascorbic acid (Ultra-Fine) directly with Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate is not recommended.

L-Ascorbic acid (Ultra-Fine) is highly effective for skin brightening and anti-aging, but it is unstable in water. Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate is a water-based ingredient. Combining these two directly will cause the L-Ascorbic acid to oxidize and degrade quickly, losing its beneficial properties.

To achieve skin whitening effects in a water-based formula like a lotion using Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate, consider using water-stable Vitamin C derivatives instead. Recommended alternatives include:

• Ethyl Ascorbic Acid: This is a highly stable Vitamin C derivative that dissolves directly in water and is effective for skin brightening.
• Ascorbyl Glucoside (AA-2G): Another water-soluble and stable Vitamin C derivative. It requires pH adjustment for optimal stability and effectiveness but is a good option for whitening.

Using these stable forms of Vitamin C will allow you to create an effective whitening lotion when combined with Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate without the issue of rapid degradation.
