Mixing Green Tea Extract, Pro Polymer, and Royal Jelly in Hyaluronic Acid Base

Guidance on Mixing Green Tea Extract, Pro Polymer, and Royal Jelly in Hyaluronic Acid Base

Here are the answers to your questions regarding mixing ingredients into a Hyaluronic Acid base:

1. Adding Green Tea Extract to Hyaluronic Acid Water Lotion:
   Yes, that is correct. Adding Green Tea Extract at the final step along with preservatives after the Hyaluronic Acid water lotion base has formed a gel and cooled to below 40°C is the appropriate method. Especially if you refrigerate the base first, it helps ensure the temperature is suitable for adding the Green Tea Extract. Some Green Tea Extracts, such as Hi-EGCG™, should also be mixed within a pH range of 4.0-6.5.

2. Adding Pro Polymer to Hyaluronic Acid Gel:
   The correct procedure is to mix the Hyaluronic Acid with water until it is fully dissolved and forms a gel (refrigerating for 3-5 hours as you mentioned can help with dissolution). After the Hyaluronic Acid gel is formed, you should then add Pro Polymer™ (Gel Maker) and stir or blend gently until you achieve the desired thicker gel consistency. You should not add Pro Polymer™ at the same time you initially shake the Hyaluronic Acid with water. Also, please note that Pro Polymer™ Silk is not compatible with Hyaluronic Acid.

3. Adding Royal Jelly to Hyaluronic Acid Water Base or Gel Base:
   Based on the search results, the Royal Jelly Extract 10-hydroxydecanoic acid 98% Purity powder is oil-soluble. If your Hyaluronic Acid water or gel base formula contains an oil phase, you should dissolve this type of Royal Jelly in the oil phase first, and then incorporate the oil phase into the Hyaluronic Acid base according to your formulation steps for incorporating oils. If your base is purely water or gel without any oil, this powder extract may not be suitable or might require a solubilizer to incorporate properly. Please note that Royal Jelly may come in different forms, and the mixing method could vary depending on the specific type you are using.
