• Hair Strengthening and Moisturization: Hydrates and fortifies damaged hair strands, increasing elasticity and reducing breakage.

• Scalp Nourishment: Actively nourishes the scalp, creating a healthier environment for hair growth.

• Powerful Antioxidant: Combats oxidative stress caused by environmental aggressors like pollution and UV exposure, protecting cells from premature aging.

Recipe: Regenerating Vitamin Facial Serum

Create a simple, water-based serum that delivers a high concentration of the B, E, C Vitamin Complex for maximum restorative and antioxidant benefits.

Ingredients:

• 94.5 g Distilled Water (Water Phase)

• 3 g B, E, C Vitamin Complex

• 2 g Low Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid (Humectant/Thickener)

• 0.5 g Preservative (e.g., Geogard Ultra)

Instructions for Preparation:

Dissolve Actives: In a sanitized beaker, combine the distilled water and the B, E, C Vitamin Complex. Stir gently until the powder is fully dissolved. Since it is highly water-soluble, this should be a quick process.

Thicken the Serum: Slowly sprinkle the low molecular weight Hyaluronic Acid powder onto the surface of the liquid. Let it sit for about 10-15 minutes to fully hydrate. Once hydrated, gently stir until a uniform, slightly thickened serum is achieved.

Add the Preservative: Introduce the preservative and mix well. The addition of water-soluble actives requires the use of a suitable preservative to ensure the serum's shelf life.

Final Check and Packaging: Check the final pH of the serum (it should be naturally balanced, around pH 6). Pour the finished serum into a sterilized airless pump or dropper bottle.

Recommendations for Use:

• Integration: Always add this powder complex to the water phase of your emulsion or solution. Since it withstands high temperatures, it can be added to a heated water phase if necessary, but adding it below 40°C is generally recommended for maximizing the stability of all vitamin components.

• Storage: Store the final serum in a cool, dark place. The opaque packaging (like a dark glass bottle) will further protect the vitamins from light degradation.

• Application: Apply 2-3 drops to clean skin morning and night before moisturizing. It is particularly effective for soothing irritated or stressed skin.
