SOYENNA: Advanced Hydration and Firming Power for Radiant Skin
Unlock the secret to visibly firmer and intensely hydrated skin with SOYENNA, a cutting-edge liquid active ingredient meticulously crafted in the USA. This clear to opalescent liquid, with a balanced pH of 6.0-7.0, is a powerhouse of hydrolyzed soy proteins, designed to deliver exceptional anti-aging and moisturizing benefits. With its excellent solubility in water, glycerin, and propylene glycol, and a versatile inclusion rate of 5-10% (up to 20% for concentrated serums), SOYENNA is an indispensable addition to your cosmetic formulations, ensuring a youthful glow and superior skin resilience.
Description and Key Features
SOYENNA is a highly bioavailable complex featuring Hydrolyzed Soy Proteins (INCI: Aqua, Hydrolysed Soy Proteins, Propylene Glycol, Phenoxyethanol). Through a process of hydrolysis, large soy protein molecules are broken down into smaller peptides and amino acids, allowing for deeper penetration into the skin and enhanced efficacy. This advanced formulation ensures maximum benefit without a heavy feel.
Key attributes of SOYENNA include:
- Exceptional Solubility: Its excellent solubility in water, glycerin, and propylene glycol makes it incredibly easy to incorporate into a wide range of aqueous and emulsion-based cosmetic products, ensuring clear and stable formulations.
- Optimal pH Range: With a pH of 6.0-7.0, SOYENNA is perfectly suited for skin compatibility, minimizing the need for extensive pH adjustments in your final product.
- Versatile Inclusion Rates: The recommended inclusion rate of 5-10% provides significant benefits for everyday products, while concentrated serums can utilize up to 20% for amplified results, offering flexibility for different product types and desired potencies.
- Clear to Opalescent Appearance: The transparent to slightly milky appearance ensures it won't significantly alter the visual clarity of your formulations.
Versatile Applications and Usage Areas in Cosmetics
The multifaceted benefits of SOYENNA make it a highly desirable active ingredient for a broad spectrum of cosmetic and personal care products, targeting hydration, anti-aging, and skin elasticity:
- Anti-Aging and Firming Skincare:
- Face Creams and Lotions: Incorporate into daily moisturizers to enhance skin firmness, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promote a smoother complexion.
- Targeted Serums (up to 20%): Formulate highly concentrated anti-aging or lifting serums designed to deliver an intensive boost of peptides and amino acids for visible improvement in skin elasticity and resilience.
- Eye Creams: Its gentle yet effective nature makes it suitable for delicate eye area formulations, helping to reduce puffiness and improve the appearance of fine lines around the eyes.
- Neck and Décolleté Treatments: Specifically target these areas, which are prone to showing signs of aging, with firming creams and serums.
- Hydrating and Moisturizing Products:
- Hydrating Toners and Mists: Add to water-based toners or facial mists to provide an extra layer of hydration and skin-conditioning benefits, leaving the skin feeling supple and refreshed.
- Body Lotions and Butters: Extend its benefits to body care by including it in nourishing lotions and body butters to improve overall skin hydration and elasticity.
- Skin Repair and Barrier Support:
- Post-Procedure Serums/Creams: Its nourishing properties can support skin recovery and strengthen the skin's natural barrier after treatments like chemical peels or microdermabrasion.
- Products for Mature or Stressed Skin: Ideal for formulations aimed at rejuvenating tired, dull, or mature skin, providing essential building blocks for repair.
- Hair Care Products (less common but possible):
- While primarily a skincare ingredient, hydrolyzed soy proteins can offer benefits to hair by strengthening strands and adding shine. It could be explored in leave-in conditioners or hair masks for damaged or brittle hair, though at lower concentrations.
SOYENNA empowers formulators to create high-performance products that actively work to enhance skin texture, boost hydration, and promote a more youthful and resilient appearance, making it a valuable asset for any cosmetic line distributed worldwide.

Instructions for Preparation:
- Sanitization: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment (beakers, stirring rods, serum bottles) using isopropyl alcohol. Allow everything to air dry completely.
- Prepare Hyaluronate (Recommended): In a small, separate container, combine Sodium Hyaluronate powder with about 10ml of distilled water from your main batch. Stir well and let it sit for at least 15-30 minutes (or longer, even overnight) to fully hydrate into a gel. This ensures better dissolution and prevents clumping in the final serum.
- Combine Base (Phase A): In your main beaker, measure out the remaining distilled water, glycerin, and propylene glycol. Stir gently until well mixed.
- Incorporate Actives (Phase B): Add the pre-hydrated Sodium Hyaluronate gel (if used) to Phase A. If not pre-hydrating, add the powder directly and stir vigorously until fully dissolved. Then, add the SOYENNA and Panthenol to the mixture. Stir thoroughly for several minutes until all ingredients are uniformly dispersed and the solution is clear to slightly opalescent.
- Add Preservative (Phase C): Add your chosen broad-spectrum preservative to the serum mixture. Stir well for at least 2-3 minutes to ensure it's evenly distributed throughout the liquid.
- pH Check (Optional but Recommended): Verify the pH of your serum. Ideally, for facial serums, the pH should be between 5.0 and 6.0 for optimal skin compatibility and preservative efficacy. Adjust if necessary 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 airless pump dispenser.
Recommendations for Use:
- Optimal Dosing: The 5-10% inclusion rate for SOYENNA is effective for general skincare products. For more intensive, concentrated serums targeting visible firming and anti-aging, an inclusion rate of up to 20% can be used.
- Integration: Due to its excellent water solubility, SOYENNA can be easily incorporated into the water phase of your formulations. Always add it during the cool-down phase if making an emulsion, after your emulsion has formed and cooled below 40°C/104°F. For cold-process formulations (like toners or gels), it can be added directly to the water phase at room temperature.
- pH Stability: SOYENNA is stable within a pH range of 6.0-7.0. While it can tolerate a broader range, maintaining the final product's pH within this range will help optimize its stability and efficacy.
- Appearance: The finished product may appear clear to slightly opalescent, which is characteristic of SOYENNA. This does not affect its performance.
- Storage: Store the finished serum in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain the integrity of the active ingredients and extend the product's shelf life.
- Patch Test: Always perform a patch test on a small, inconspicuous area of skin (e.g., inner forearm) before full application to check for any sensitivities or reactions, especially with higher concentrations.
