Question

Can I modify the Vitamin C E Ferulic Pre-Mix Kit (Lite) by using 80g of the cream base and adding 20g of Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) Ultra-Fine to achieve a 20% concentration? What are the pros and cons of this modification?

Answer

Hello,

As the staff previously informed, the formula for the Vitamin C E Ferulic Pre-Mix Kit (Lite) is designed to support a maximum of 15% Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid).

Therefore, reducing the cream base to 80g and adding 20g of Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) Ultra-Fine to achieve a 20% concentration is not possible. The formula does not support a concentration as high as 20%.

Since this modification is not possible, there are no pros or cons to discuss for the specific adjustment you asked about.
