Moisturizing, Firming, Brightening Gel for Sensitive Skin

Asked by: nu_goi On: August 13, 2013 Product Type: Cosmetics

Question

I am developing a skincare product with the following properties:

  • Product Type: Cream/Gel
  • Desired Benefits:
    • Provides moisture without being greasy.
    • Firms the skin.
    • Reduces light dark spots.
    • Suitable for sensitive skin.

Initially, I considered a Double Hyaluronic Acid gel base, but was advised to use Aloe Vera gel instead if my skin isn't dry, to avoid excessive oiliness. I was also advised that Sea Kelp Bioferment might cause pilling if used under makeup during the day.

I have revised the formula using Aloe Vera gel as the base and added REGU®-AGE and Centella Asiatica extract.

My questions are:

  1. Is this revised formula suitable for my desired properties (moisturizing, non-greasy, firming, reducing light dark spots, sensitive skin)?
  2. Can this formula be used as both a day and night cream?
  3. How can I order the ingredients?
  4. What are the storage conditions and shelf life for the ingredients and the finished product?
  5. For a "Tester" order, what type of packaging is used (e.g., pump bottle)?

Answer

Based on the conversation, you were asking about a formula for a moisturizing, non-greasy cream that firms the skin, reduces light dark spots, and is suitable for sensitive skin.

Initially, you proposed a formula with Double Hyaluronic Acid gel as the base. The staff advised changing the base to Aloe Vera gel if your skin isn't dry, to prevent excessive moisture/oiliness, and suggested removing Sea Kelp Bioferment for day use if you wear makeup as it might cause pilling.

You then proposed a revised formula using Aloe Vera gel as the base, removing Sea Kelp, and adding REGU®-AGE and Centella Asiatica extract. The staff confirmed this revised formula is suitable for your needs and can be used as both a day and night cream.

Regarding your other questions:

  • Ordering: You can order the ingredients on the website. Delivery typically takes 5-7 days after payment. The stock issue you encountered was resolved by the staff.
  • Storage & Shelf Life: The staff directed you to check the website or the forum's "รวมสูตร" (รวมสูตร) section for specific storage instructions and shelf life for each ingredient.
  • Packaging: For a "Tester" order, the product will be provided in a pump bottle.
