Creating a Serum Based on Your Formula

Yes, it is possible to create a serum similar to the formula you provided using ingredients available from MySkinRecipes.

Based on your ingredient list (Matrixyl® 3000, Ubiquinone, Aloe Barbadensis, Glycerin, Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin E, Benzylalcohol, Dehydroacetic Acid), we have several corresponding products:

• Matrixyl 3000: We have Pal-GHK, Pal-GQPR (eq Matrixyl 3000).
• Ubiquinone (Coenzyme Q10): The Coenzyme Q10 (10%, Encapsulate Powder, Water-Soluble) is available and suitable for a water-based serum.
• Aloe Barbadensis: You can use Aloe Vera Extract (extraction ratio 10:1 FullAssay™) or one of our Aloe Vera Gel bases such as Aloe Vera Gel (Lite) or Aloe Vera Gel (Heavy), which are designed for mixing other active ingredients.
• Glycerin: Glycerin (USP/Food Grade) is available.
• Hyaluronic Acid: We offer various types of Hyaluronic Acid powder, including Hyaluronic Acid (Standard Molecule), Hyaluronic Acid (Large Molecule), Hyaluronic Acid (Super Low Molecule, 7000daltons), and 4D Hyaluronic Acid. Alternatively, you can use our Hyaluronic Acid Gel Base as a convenient starting point for your serum.
• Vitamin E: For a water-based serum, the Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate) Water-Soluble is a suitable option.
• Preservatives (Benzylalcohol, Dehydroacetic Acid): Dehydroacetic Acid (99% Powder, Natural Preservative) is available. Benzyl Alcohol is often used in combination with Dehydroacetic Acid as a preservative blend. You would need to ensure you use a complete preservative system effective against bacteria, yeast, and mold.

The ingredients you listed are generally compatible with a water-based serum formulation. The formula is also noted as Paraben-Free, Fragrance and Dye Free, which can be achieved using the appropriate ingredients from our selection.

To formulate the serum, you would typically combine the water phase ingredients, ensuring proper dissolution and mixing, and then add the heat-sensitive ingredients like Matrixyl 3000 and water-soluble Coenzyme Q10 in the final step below 40°C. A suitable preservative blend should be incorporated to ensure product stability and safety. Using a pre-made gel base like the Hyaluronic Acid Gel Base or Aloe Vera Gel bases can simplify the process.
