Replacing Distilled Water with Galactomyces or Sea Kelp Extract

Regarding your question about replacing distilled water in the formulation:

Based on the staff's response, both options you asked about are possible:

1. Replacing distilled water with more Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate (which the staff referred to as Pitera): This is possible. However, the staff recommends considering adding other diverse ingredients instead of simply increasing the amount of Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate. They suggest that a variety of ingredients working together will result in a more complete and effective formula than a large amount of a single ingredient.
2. Replacing distilled water with another water-soluble ingredient like Sea Kelp Extract: This is also possible. However, the staff strongly recommends using Sea Kelp Extract at a low concentration, specifically only 1-2%. Using a higher percentage can cause an unpleasant smell in the product. Therefore, replacing 15% distilled water with 15% Sea Kelp Extract is not advisable according to the staff's recommendation.

In summary, while you can replace the distilled water, it's recommended to follow the staff's advice: consider adding a variety of ingredients instead of just more Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate, and if using Sea Kelp Extract, use it at a maximum of 1-2%.
