Mixing Vitamin C Powder with Ready-Made Cream

Subject: Regarding mixing Vitamin C powder with ready-made cream

Thank you for your question. You are looking for a ready-made cream that you can mix with Vitamin C powder instead of mixing a cream base yourself.

Regarding your request for a specific brand or type of ready-made cream to mix with Vitamin C powder, it is difficult to provide a direct recommendation for the following reasons:

• Formulation Compatibility: The stability and effectiveness of Vitamin C when mixed into a cream depend heavily on the cream's specific formulation, including its pH level and the presence of other ingredients.
• Potential Instability: Mixing pure Vitamin C powder into an arbitrary ready-made cream might cause the Vitamin C to degrade quickly, lose its effectiveness, or even destabilize the cream itself (e.g., change texture, separation).
• Optimal Absorption: The pH of the final mixture is crucial for Vitamin C absorption into the skin. A ready-made cream's pH might not be suitable for optimal Vitamin C activity.

For these reasons, it is generally recommended to use a base cream specifically designed for mixing with active ingredients or to use a pre-formulated Vitamin C serum or cream that is already stable and formulated for effectiveness.

As the staff previously mentioned, if you have a specific cream you like, providing its ingredient list might help determine if a particular type of Vitamin C could potentially be compatible, but this is still not ideal compared to using a properly formulated product or base.

Based on the available information and tools, I cannot recommend a specific ready-made cream for the purpose of mixing with Vitamin C powder due to the complexities of formulation compatibility and stability.
