Mixing Oil-Soluble Vitamins in Rose Hip Oil and Storage
Question
Can I mix Perfect-C (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate), Vitamin A [retinyl palmitate], and DL-alpha tocopherol into Rose Hip Oil (Extra Virgin Organic Fresh)? What are the considerations for mixing and storage?
Answer
Yes, you can mix Perfect-C™ (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate), Retinyl palmitate, and DL-alpha tocopherol into Rose Hip Oil. All these ingredients are oil-soluble and can be combined in an oil base like Rose Hip Oil.
To mix them, simply stir the ingredients into the Rose Hip Oil until they are fully dissolved and combined.
It is very important to protect the resulting mixture from light and heat. Perfect-C™ and Retinyl palmitate, in particular, are sensitive to light and can degrade when exposed. Rose Hip Oil and DL-alpha tocopherol also benefit from protection from light and heat to maintain their quality. Therefore, store the mixture in an opaque container and keep it in a cool place, away from direct sunlight.
