Description and Key Features
Our Vitamin B5, PP, C & Hyaluronic Acid Complex is a synergistic fusion of some of the most highly regarded active ingredients in cosmetics. This clear, liquid complex delivers a potent punch of skin and hair benefits, all derived from its expert formulation:
- Panthenol (Vitamin B5): A renowned humectant and emollient that deeply moisturizes, soothes irritation, and supports the skin's natural barrier function. For hair, it conditions, reduces static, and adds shine.
- Ethyl Panthenol: A more stable derivative of Panthenol, offering enhanced penetration and sustained benefits.
- Nicotinamide (Vitamin PP/B3): A versatile ingredient that improves skin elasticity, reduces redness, helps to even skin tone, and strengthens the skin's barrier.
- Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) & Sodium Ascorbate: Powerful antioxidants that protect the skin from environmental damage, brighten complexion, and promote collagen synthesis.
- Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid): A highly effective humectant that attracts and holds significant amounts of moisture, providing prolonged hydration, plumping the skin, and improving elasticity.
- Sodium Salicylate, Citric Acid, Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid: A blend of gentle alpha and beta hydroxy acids that aid in mild exfoliation, improve skin texture, help normalize pH, and enhance product penetration.
- Amino Acids (INCI provided lists Sodium PCA, Sodium Lactate, Arginine, Aspartic Acid, PCA, Glycine, Alanine, Serine, Valine, Proline, Threonine, Isoleucine, Histidine, Phenylalanine, Water): This rich amino acid profile mimics the skin's Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF), providing exceptional hydration, strengthening the skin's barrier, and supporting cellular repair.
This comprehensive blend is easily water-soluble, making it effortlessly integrable into a wide range of aqueous and emulsion-based cosmetic products.

Instructions for Preparation:
- Sanitization: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment (beakers, stirring rods, serum bottles with droppers) using isopropyl alcohol. Allow everything to air dry completely.
- Combine Phase A: In a clean glass beaker, measure out the distilled water and glycerin. Stir gently until the glycerin is fully dissolved.
- Incorporate Actives (Phase B): Add the Vitamin B5, PP, C & Hyaluronic Acid Complex to Phase A. Then, add the liquid green tea extract. Stir the mixture thoroughly for several minutes until all ingredients are uniformly dispersed and the solution is clear.
- Add Preservative (Phase C): Add your chosen broad-spectrum preservative to the serum mixture. Stir well for at least 2-3 minutes to ensure even distribution throughout the liquid.
- pH Adjustment (Recommended): Check the pH of your serum. The target pH for a facial serum is typically between 5.0 and 5.5, which aligns well with the complex's pH range. If necessary, adjust using a diluted solution of lactic acid (to lower pH) or baking soda solution (to raise pH), adding drop by drop and rechecking.
- Final Transfer: Carefully pour the finished serum into a clean, sterile dark glass bottle with a dropper or pump dispenser.
Recommendations for Use:
- Optimal Dosing: For a face serum, an inclusion rate of 3-8% for the Vitamin B5, PP, C & Hyaluronic Acid Complex is recommended. Our recipe uses 5% for a balanced yet potent effect. Adjust based on desired intensity for your specific product type.
- Cold Process Integration: This complex is water-soluble and heat-sensitive, making it ideal for cold-process formulations or adding during the cool-down phase (below 40°C/104°F) if you are making an emulsion, to preserve its beneficial compounds.
- pH Stability: The complex helps to normalize skin pH, but it's still crucial to check the final pH of your product to ensure skin compatibility and optimal preservative efficacy.
- Storage: Store the finished serum in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain ingredient integrity and product stability. Dark glass bottles are preferred to protect light-sensitive ingredients like Vitamin C.
- Layering: This serum can be applied to clean skin before your moisturizer. It provides an excellent base for other skincare products.
- Consistency: The complex is a liquid, so it will not significantly thicken your formula. For thicker serums, consider adding a gum or gelling agent.
- Shelf Life: Adhere to the shelf life dictated by your chosen preservative system.
