Formula Review Summary

Based on the conversation, the staff has reviewed your proposed formula for whitening, moisturizing, freckles, dry combination skin, and initial wrinkles.

Proposed Formula:

• Pitera (Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate): 80%
• AA2G (Ascorbyl Glucoside): 10%
• TEA (Triethanolamine): 1%
• Centella Extract (Centella Asiatica Extract): 2%
• Distilled Water: 6%
• Pro Polymer (Acrylate Crosspolymer): 1%

Staff Feedback:

• The ingredient combination is considered suitable.
• The critical step is adjusting the pH level to 6.5-6.8, as AA2G requires this specific range for stability and effectiveness.
• You will need a pH meter for this adjustment.
• If you don't want to use a pH meter, consider using alternative Vitamin C forms like L-Ascorbic Acid, Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, or Perfect-C instead of AA2G.
• This formula will not help with clogged pores but will not worsen them.

Mixing Instructions:

1. Combine Pitera (80%), AA2G (10%), Triethanolamine (1%), and Distilled Water (6%).
2. Measure the pH of this mixture. If the pH is too low, add more Triethanolamine gradually until the pH is between 6.5 and 6.8.
3. Add Pro Polymer (1%). (Pro Polymer might slightly lower the pH, but no further adjustment is needed).
4. Add Centella Extract (2%).
5. Mix or blend until a cream texture is achieved.
