Hello Laura, Chelator helps to increase the shelf life, stability and efficacy of cosmetic products but it cannot entirely replace Cosgard preservative.

Good evening! Thanks for your answer In this case, if I still want to eliminate aha, can I use chelator instead of cosguard? With the proposed replacement (niacinamide)

Hello Laura, If you follow the original recipe you can add niacinamide 2% respectively Softdermo Eco 4% instead of Cosgard, proportionally decreasing the amount of water. A pH value higher than 5.5 due to the removal of the fruit acid AHA no longer allows the two preservatives to be substituted. Have a sunny day!

Hello wonderful people :) This toner is an absolute hit : the difference in skin tone can be seen in just 3-4 days from the start of application and the compliments received are a bonus ;) (I replaced the rosemary water with lemon balm water and added 0.1% LMW). It seems only fair to pass on the same compliments and thank you, once again, for the work you do. With love and respect, Ileana

Hello! In principle yes, you can enrich the formula with vitamin C MAP variant. The toner can be used both in the morning and in the evening, after cleansing the complexion.

Okay. Thank you so much again. May not include the last two then if you think it may compromise the formula. Will just add the extract & niacinamide. More power to you!

Hi, Marishell! We estimate that you can add dragon s blood extract and niacinamide in the percentages proposed. We have reserves on further addition of urea and kojic acid, without tests we can not confirm that the formula will go well.

At the 0.3% HMW hyaluronic acid dosage, the solution is just slightly gelled, a little more consistent than plain water.

Thanks. indeed, the next morning it was perfectly dissolved. But shouldn't the composition have been slightly gelled? (using the HMW version)?

Hello! You probably didn't sprinkle the hyaluronic acid powder gradually enough, so the dissolving takes longer, but it will happen. Start using the preparation on the second or third day after preparation, in the meantime shake the bottle occasionally.
