Instructions:

- Add the glycerin and panthenol to the water phase and mix well.
- In a separate clean beaker, combine the jojoba oil and vitamin E.
- Slowly add the oil phase to the water phase while continuously stirring with a mini mixer or whisk until a homogenous emulsion forms.
- Allow the mixture to cool down to room temperature while continuing to stir occasionally.
- Once cooled, add the Walnut Extract Concentrate and the natural preservative. Stir gently until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Transfer the serum to a clean, airtight container.
Application Recommendations:
- Perform a patch test on a small area of skin before widespread use to check for any individual sensitivities.
- Incorporate the Walnut Extract Concentrate at the recommended percentage to achieve the desired benefits. The typical usage rate ranges from 1% to 10% depending on the product type and desired effect.
- Ensure thorough mixing of the extract into the formulation for even distribution of its beneficial components.
- Store the finished product in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat to maintain its efficacy.
- When incorporating into emulsions, add the extract during the cool-down phase to preserve its active compounds.
- Consider the overall formulation and the interaction of the walnut extract with other ingredients. While generally compatible, it's always recommended to conduct small-scale stability tests.
- For water-based formulations where solubility might be a concern, consider pre-dissolving the extract in a small amount of a suitable solvent like glycerin or propylene glycol before adding it to the main batch.
