Complex for the regulation of sebum secretion, 1 L

Balancing Oil Production in Formulations Built for Large-Scale Cosmetic Manufacturing

The complex for the regulation of sebum secretion in a 1 liter packaging is designed for laboratories and production facilities working with large batches of finished goods - sebum-controlling serums, mattifying emulsions, creams for oily and combination skin, and blemish-fighting lines. This active ingredient belongs to the section Anti Inflammatory And Anti Acne Actives, which gathers components that reduce inflammatory processes and correct excessive sebaceous gland activity.

The main area of application for this complex is the cosmetic manufacturing industry, specifically products for problematic and oily facial skin: toners, fluids, lightweight creams, masks, and spot treatments targeting enlarged pores. The ingredient is widely used in dermocosmetics and in products formulated for teenage skin, where reducing sebum output without over-drying the epidermis is essential. Beyond skincare and color cosmetics, this component finds use in the spa industry for professional deep-cleansing and skin-balancing treatments, as well as in after-shave products and body care lines for combination skin.

The mechanism of action relies on normalizing sebaceous gland secretion, reducing oily shine throughout the day, and decreasing inflammatory reactions linked to clogged pores. Because of this, the complex is often combined with other actives from the anti-acne category - for instance with Bix'Activ, which strengthens the anti-inflammatory effect, or with Matmarine, which delivers additional mattifying and long-lasting shine control. To reinforce the skin barrier and support regeneration, it pairs well with glucosamine hydrochloride, which supports epidermal recovery after inflammatory episodes.

The complex should be added during the cold phase of emulsion preparation, after the main phase has been removed from heat, at a temperature not exceeding 40 degrees Celsius, to avoid degrading the active compounds. The recommended dosage typically ranges from 1 to 5 percent of the total formula weight, with the exact percentage depending on the intended intensity and the type of finished product - lighter fluids require the lower end of the range, while more intensive serums can approach the upper limit. The complex performs reliably across a broad pH range of finished emulsions and does not require special acidity adjustments.

In industrial production, uniform distribution of the active substance throughout the emulsion volume is critical - using a homogenizer during the mixing stage is recommended, which becomes especially relevant when working with a large 1 liter container designed for conveyor-line batches and consistent supply for an entire product range. This packaging size is convenient for formulators who need batch-to-batch stability without recalculating concentrations every time.

The complex should be stored in a tightly sealed container, in a dry, cool place protected from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations. Once opened, it is advisable to use the contents within the period specified by the manufacturer, maintaining clean tools during every extraction to prevent microbiological contamination of a large raw material batch.

Mattifying Gel-Cream for Oily Skin

Distilled water 700 ml

Glycerin 30 ml

Complex for the regulation of sebum secretion 25 ml

Gelling agent (xanthan gum) 5 g

Cosmetic emulsifier 40 g

Jojoba oil 20 ml

Preservative 8 ml

Fragrance 3 ml

In a separate container mix the water with glycerin, sprinkle in the gelling agent and let it swell for 20 minutes. Separately melt the emulsifier with jojoba oil in a water bath until uniform, then cool to 40 degrees Celsius. Combine both phases and mix thoroughly until you get a smooth gel-cream texture, then during the cold phase add the sebum-regulating complex, preservative and fragrance. Stir until fully homogeneous, pour into clean containers and allow the product to stabilize at room temperature for 24 hours before packaging.
