Dear Gabriella, In small amounts that do not yet compromise the stability of the cream, you can add coenzyme Q10. As it is an oily active ingredient, you should compensate it from the amount of oil. Have a nice day!

Hello! I would like to ask if Q10 can be added to this formula? I'm thinking of subtracting it from the water.

Hi Ramona, Relax you can omit the fragrance from the recipe. Cetearyl alcohol, on the other hand, is essential for the stability of the cream. Good luck!

Hello, Bella Emulsifier requires a higher pH. If the cream is stable at a pH of 5.5, you can use it at ease. In case you exclude hyaluronic acid from the oily phase, we recommend increasing the amount of water proportionally. Because of the low pH, we do not recommend the addition of Aloe Vera gel in this recipe. we wish you!

Hi, I have a question regarding the Bella emulsifier used in this formula, I have seen that the optimum pH is 6.5-7.5. What is the effect of this pH on the skin, if a neutral pH is 5,5? And another question, can I exclude the hyaluronic acid, and use Aloe Vera gel, lowering the percentage of water accordingly? Thanks.

Hello! In this recipe can I replace cetearyl alcohol with Stabila cetyl alcohol? Can I replace Acmella with Dragon's Blood?

Hello! In some recipes, the simplest ones that are made of liquid ingredients only, we have specified the dosage in ml. The equivalent (density) is specified in the TDS of each product, see the attached documents on the website. The safest is always the dosage in grams, especially in those recipes where we also have solid ingredients, for which you need to use a scale anyway. All the best!

Hello, In many recipes you recommend the amounts in grams, although the solutions are measured in ml. ? Which is the corresponding ? Thanks !

That cream either had some sort of spirulina extract, or contained a very small amount - which doesn't make much difference but looks good on the label. Have an easy day!

Thank you. I saw a spirulina cream in the store and thought I might add it :)

Hello! Spirulina is best recommended in masks and other products that rinse off after application. In a cream, spirulina imparts both color and less pleasant odor.
