Using InstantLift: Compatibility and White Residue Issues
Question
When using InstantLift in a formulation, are there any compatibility issues with other ingredients, such as colors or fragrances? What are the main challenges, like white residue or pilling, and how should the formula be adjusted to minimize these issues before adding other ingredients?
Answer
# Using InstantLift in Formulations
Regarding the use of InstantLift, it is compatible with other ingredients, including colors and fragrances. You can incorporate these into your formulation as you normally would.
The main challenge when working with InstantLift is managing the potential for white residue or pilling on the skin. It is highly recommended to first focus on optimizing your base formula and adjusting ingredient ratios to minimize this issue.
Once you have successfully formulated a stable base with reduced white residue, you can then confidently add other active ingredients, colors, or fragrances without encountering compatibility problems.
InstantLift is a type of silicate, similar to ingredients like Lithium Magnesium Sodium Silicate (Clear), which provides a lifting or tightening effect.
