Vitamin C Anhydrous Gel Texture Issues (Grittiness, Pilling)

Regarding your Vitamin C in silicone gel formula:

The pilling and gritty texture you are experiencing is likely due to the L-Ascorbic Acid powder not being fully dissolved in the anhydrous (water-free) silicone and isododecane base. As the staff mentioned, this type of formula contains Vitamin C powder that does not dissolve until it comes into contact with the skin's moisture. This is a known characteristic of such anhydrous formulas. The grittiness is the undissolved powder, and the pilling can occur as the silicone base interacts with the skin or other products.

The staff suggested that this type of formula might be more suitable for use as a night mask, allowing the Vitamin C to gradually dissolve into the skin overnight.

Regarding the "friendly boys" fragrance from bescent:

I can only provide information based on the MySkinRecipes database and general cosmetic formulation knowledge. I do not have access to external websites like bescent, so I cannot provide specific mixing instructions, ratios, or confirm if Florafix is needed for that particular fragrance product. Please refer to the instructions provided by the vendor (bescent) for guidance on using their fragrance.
