Thank you for your very helpful questions. คุณ C7 has already kindly answered several of them. I will answer the remaining questions and add to some of the points already discussed.

Here are the answers to your questions:

Your Questions Answered

1. Some ingredients are missing from the website, and the possibility of their return

Based on the information available:

• Myristyl Nicotinate (Max-B3™): Is still available.
• Resveratrol: Is still available in several forms, such as Trans-Resveratrol, Artocarpus Lakoocha Wood Extract (Oxyresveratrol), Resveratrol LongMax™, ActiveRelease™ Trans-Resveratrol, Micromul™ Resveratrol, ActiveRelease™ Pterostilbene.
• Ectoin: Is still available.
• Eyeseryl: Was not found in the current system.

Regarding the reasons why specific product items were removed from the website, or the possibility of them being restocked, this information is not available in the database I can access. Therefore, I cannot provide specific answers on this matter.

2. Ingredients without specified pH in "Mixing Instructions"

คุณ C7 has clearly answered this point, stating that all ingredients have an optimal pH range, and generally, most cosmetic ingredients are stable within the pH range of 4-7. If unsure, it is best to formulate within the pH range of 5-6 for safety and stability.

3. Ordering Aloe Vera Gel Tester with oil-soluble ingredients

คุณ C7 provided information that CoQ10 and Perfect C are compatible with gels made with Pro Polymer. Regarding ordering a tester, I cannot confirm if the company automatically includes an Emollient. It is recommended to inquire directly with the company for clarification.

4. Applying Matted Silica before applying cream

คุณ C7 confirmed this is correct. Applying Matted Silica, which has oil-absorbing properties, before applying a cream containing oil may cause the Matted Silica to absorb oil from the cream, reducing the cream's ability to form a protective layer and thus reducing its effectiveness in reducing Transepidermal Water Loss.

5. Applying Silicone after Silica

คุณ C7 stated that Silica does not absorb Silicone. Therefore, applying a product containing Silicone after Matted Silica will not cause the Silicone layer to lose its emollient/barrier properties due to absorption by the silica, unlike with oil-based creams.

6. Storage of Vit C-E-Ferulic Acid Kit

คุณ C7 confirmed that if the product remains clear, without yellowing, and smells the same as when freshly mixed, it can be inferred that the product is still fresh and has not undergone oxidation. The Vitamin E and Ferulic Acid in the formula help to slow down the degradation of Vitamin C effectively.

7. Can Long-Lash™ be used on eyebrows/hair?

คุณ C7 answered that Long-Lash™ can also be effective on eyebrows or hair, but the limitation is the cost. If it works for your eyelashes, there is a high probability it will work for hair elsewhere on your body. However, if it is not effective on your eyelashes, it is less likely to be effective on other hair.

8. and 9. Mixing hair care/anti-dandruff/anti-static ingredients into commercial shampoos

• Water-soluble hair care ingredients: Panthenol (Vitamin B5), Natural Moisturizing Amino Acids, and WaterLock™ can be mixed into commercial shampoos available on the market. WaterLock™ also has the property of helping to reduce irritation from surfactants in shampoo.
• Anti-dandruff ingredients: Dandruff-Guard™ (Piroctone Olamine) and Zinc Pyrithione can also be mixed into shampoo.
  • For Dandruff-Guard™ powder form, it should be dispersed in water before mixing into the shampoo. Dandruff-Guard™ WS is water dispersible. Avoid heat above 80°C for the powder form.
  • For Zinc Pyrithione, it is insoluble in both water and oil. Mixing requires high-speed blending for even dispersion, and the shampoo formula should have sufficient viscosity to prevent settling. Additionally, avoid using Disodium EDTA or any other Chelating Agents, non-ionic surfactants, and Oxidants (such as Peroxides) with Zinc Pyrithione, as they may cause degradation or incompatibility.
• General Precaution: Although most ingredients can be mixed, the composition of commercial shampoos varies. The compatibility of the ingredients you wish to add with all the ingredients in the shampoo may differ. Therefore, it is always recommended to check the ingredients of the commercial shampoo and perform a small test mix first to ensure the product remains stable, does not separate, or have other issues.
• Anti-static agents: I do not have specific information regarding the mixing of anti-static agents into commercial shampoos in the database.

10. Deodorant Formulation Example

คุณ C7 mentioned that they will post a deodorant formulation example later.

11. Thread for New/Restocked Items Notification

This is a very good suggestion for the website/forum management.
