Hello Claudia, Generally 1-5% cosmetic ingredients can be added to this cream base, in some cases up to 10%; the optimal percentage depends on the type and solubility of the ingredients. Adding additional active ingredients to this formula could destabilize the final cream. We recommend allantoin 0.4% without added panthenol. If panthenol is included, decrease the percentage of slim-active at the same time. Incorporate allantoin cold by vigorous mixing until homogenized.

Hello. If I would like to add Panthenol and Allantoin to this body lotion (since I have atopic skin), how much should I add and how do I dissolve the allantoin? Thank you!

Good evening! I'm interested to know if I can make a sulfur cream, from a cream base, and what else I could add, to give results, for a person suffering from psoriasis. Thank you very much!

Hello! Unfortunately not, as caffeine requires prior hot dissolving.

Hello! The formation of air bubbles can be due to air entrapment during homogenization or due to a chemical reaction. In the first case it does not present a problem other than appearance, and can be largely prevented by slower homogenization or if done with the mixer then by deep immersion of the mixer arm. If air bubbles form as a result of a chemical reaction, for example pH problems, the formula should be rethought and retested, paying attention to possible incompatibilities.

Hello, I have tried to formulate an acne cream with 90% natural cream base, the remaining 10% being niacinamide, thyme oil, Marine-Z, tea tree oil, black cumin oil and decalact. I noticed intense bubble formation within a week. Could you please give me a suggestion to prevent this phenomenon? Thank you very much.

Hello. You could add 1-2 ml of daisy oil, but that would be too little to make a difference.

Good morning. I am bothering you with one more iteration related to the cream. Could I also add daisy oil and how many drops would be needed. I am still prospecting and want to be well informed. Thank you and all the best.

Hello, Cristiana! The main ingredient Slim-activ is not soluble in oils, it can only be incorporated into emulsions and aqueous preparations.

Good evening. For this recipe could I use another base (e.g. oil) instead of the natural cream base but still retain its properties? If yes, which oil do you recommend considering that I have very dry skin? Thank you very much. Cristiana
