Answer
Subject: Serum Formula for Melasma, Oiliness, Pores, and Wrinkles
Hello,
Thank you for your question regarding a serum formula to address melasma/freckles, oiliness, enlarged pores, and wrinkles, along with mixing instructions.
Creating a single serum formula that effectively targets multiple concerns requires careful selection of compatible ingredients at appropriate concentrations. As the staff mentioned, it's recommended to first understand the basics of cosmetic formulation.
The staff has helpfully directed you to the relevant categories on their website where you can find ingredients suitable for each concern:
- For melasma/freckles: Whitening category
- For oiliness: Oil Control category
- For wrinkles: Anti-Aging (Peptide) category
- For enlarged pores: As the staff noted, controlling oiliness often helps improve the appearance of pores.
Please explore these categories and select ingredients that interest you, keeping in mind the staff's advice to avoid using too many ingredients in one formula, as this can make the serum sticky and less effective.
Unfortunately, I cannot provide a specific formula with exact percentages and mixing steps, as this requires detailed knowledge of the specific ingredients you choose, their recommended usage rates, and compatibility, which is beyond my current capabilities.
We recommend you follow the staff's guidance to learn the basics and select ingredients from the suggested categories.
Thank you.
