Instructions for Preparation:
-
Sanitization: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment (beakers, stirring rods, serum bottles) with isopropyl alcohol and allow them to air dry completely.
-
Prepare Aqueous Phase: In a clean beaker, combine distilled water, glycerin, and rosemary hydrosol. Stir well.
-
Add Solubles: Add niacinamide and caffeine anhydrous to the aqueous phase. Stir until completely dissolved. Gentle warming (below 40°C) can assist dissolution if needed, but ensure it cools before the next step.
-
Add Red Onion Extract and Preservative: Once the mixture is at room temperature, add Red Onion Concentrated Extract and your chosen preservative. Stir thoroughly for at least 1-2 minutes to ensure even distribution.
-
Add Essential Oil Blend: If using, add the essential oil blend and stir gently to incorporate.
-
Check pH (Recommended): Test the pH of your finished serum. For a scalp serum, a pH between 4.5-5.5 is often ideal. Adjust if necessary with a tiny drop of diluted lactic acid to lower pH or diluted baking soda solution to raise pH.
-
Bottle: Carefully transfer the finished serum into a clean, sterile serum bottle with a dropper or spray applicator.
Recommendations for Application and Use:
-
Dosage: The 10% concentration of Red Onion Concentrated Extract in this serum is designed for potent scalp treatment. Adjust the percentage based on the desired intensity for other formulations.
-
Heat Sensitivity: While the method of extraction involves heat, in your final formulation, it's generally best to add heat-sensitive natural extracts like this to the cool-down phase (below 40°C) of your product to preserve their integrity.
-
Solubility: This extract is water-soluble, making it ideal for water-based serums, tonics, shampoos, and conditioners.
-
Storage: Store the finished serum in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain its efficacy and extend shelf life. The preservative ensures microbial stability.
-
Application: Apply a few drops or sprays of the serum directly to the scalp, focusing on areas of concern. Gently massage into the scalp for 2-5 minutes. Leave on for at least 30 minutes, or overnight, before washing your hair. Use 2-3 times per week for best results.
-
Patch Test: Always perform a patch test on a small, inconspicuous area of skin (e.g., behind the ear or on the inner forearm) before widespread use, especially if you have sensitive skin or known allergies.
-
Scent: Red onion extract may have a characteristic scent. Essential oils can help mask this, but some natural aroma may remain. This typically dissipates after application or rinsing.
