Whitening Cream Formula Review: Tea Tree Oil and Activated Resorcinol Solubility

Hello! Thank you for sharing your whitening formulation for mixed skin, aiming for brightening, strengthening, and firming.

The staff has reviewed your formula and provided valuable feedback:

1. Tea Tree Oil: The staff asked about the reason for including Tea Tree Oil. If it's not specifically to address acne concerns, they recommend removing it as it may not provide other benefits in this formula. Could you please clarify if you included Tea Tree Oil for acne?
2. Activated Resorcinol Solubility: Activated Resorcinol needs to be dissolved in oil. Your current formula does not contain enough oil to properly dissolve 0.5% Activated Resorcinol. The staff suggested adding 3% MSH White Absorb™ to the formula, as it is oil-based and will help dissolve the Activated Resorcinol. MSH White Absorb™ also offers additional whitening benefits.

Based on the staff's feedback, and assuming Tea Tree Oil is not needed for acne, here is a potential revised formula incorporating MSH White Absorb™:

• Safe B3: 5%
• GlucoBright: 4%
• Active Resveratrol: 3%
• L-Carnitine: 3%
• Co-Q10: 1%
• Activated Resorcinol: 0.5%
• Phenoxyethanol: 1%
• EDTA: 0.2%
• Satin Cream Maker: 1.5%
• MSH White Absorb™: 3%
• Water: 77.8%
• Total: 100%

This revised formula addresses the solubility issue of Activated Resorcinol and includes MSH White Absorb™ for enhanced whitening and solubility support.

Please let us know if you included Tea Tree Oil for acne or if you have any further questions about this revised formula.
