Hi, your videos are so informative! Thank you for them! I woul like to ask you aboutthe pH of the formulation, is it ok to use a neutral pH in our face?
Thanks Ana, yes you can use neutral on the face; while the skin pH is normally around 5.5, it is okay if a product has a neutral pH if that is what the active ingredient requires to be stable. Water has a neutral pH and it is fine to wash in! Its only when it starts to get alkaline, above 8.5, that it can start to cause some irritation if left on the skin. Happy formulating!
Dear Belinda,
What is your opinion about ordinary 10% niacinamide+ 1%ZnPCA
Great video :) I was wondering if you would still get the same benefits of B3 on the skin in a physical sunscreen (Zinc Oxide)?
Yes. Please email us for full formulation, method and supplier details: info@personalcarescience.com.au we provide this free. Happy formulating!
Hi Belinda! Thanks for another great video! Can vitamin B3 be added at the cool down phase? Will it dissolve properly? I am thinking in adding with my glycerin extract, try to dissolve it with them before adding to the formula. And, is using just glycerin a good way of delivering the vitamin B3 or you need a skin enhances to properly deliver its benefits to the skin? Again, thanks so much for another great video!
Osmolytes will always help deliver the ingredient further, so glycerin is useful for this. Add it below 70degC, it dissolves easily in water.

Hi blenda
How does riboflavin vit B2 work in cosmetics? You did not mention anything about it.. Is it useless?
I've not seen any stand alone scientific data supporting in vivo efficacy - I can't comment until I have seen data to support its efficacy.
Hi Belinda , please , why we should keep claims upon using vitamin B7 in cosmetics please ? while other not ?
Hi Areej, I'm not sure if I undertstand your question - are you asking, why should we use claims when using vitamin B7? Same answer for any active - they are expensive, and we need to not only purchase them, but also adjust the formula to ensure compatibility - so if we are going to that much effort, we would want to make good claims! Hope I understood you correctly, happy formulating!
@@theinstituteofpersonalcare6401 yes you understood it thank you very much
Hi Belinda, you say that niacinamide is stable in pH 3.5-7.5, yet I've seen several suppliers warn not to use below pH 6. I'd like to incorporate niacinamide into a formula with a pH around 4.5 and can't seem to find a conclusive answer
Hi First Last, some grades can vary. The ones I use in this video are from DSM, and that is their recommendations. If you are using materials from a different supplier, please follow their recommendations as they may be making their recommendations for a particular reason. This applies to all actives really - hope this helps, always check with the suppliers data sheets for their specific materials. Happy formulating!
The ordinary advices not to use niacinamie in a solution under 5 ph. What do you think about it?
Most skin care should have a pH of 5 or above anyway; niacinamide is quite pH stable.
Hi, I can’t find this recipe in Dropbox. Can you help me and let me know what is the name of recipe. Thank you ❤
Hi, never mind I just found it 😊
Can anyone tell me the type of pH meter used? I would love to buy one.

How could be possible that many brands sell products with 10, even 20% of niacinamide, if maximum is 5? I know there are some discrepancies among manufacturers, but this is way too much . Thanks !
The most you need/efficacy studies are based on 5%; you can use more but there is no clinical evidence that it has more benefits. It’s not harmful in higher amounts, but it may not have any benefits.
@@theinstituteofpersonalcare6401, thank you. There is the same issue with other actives (retinol higher than .3, AHA's than 10), but unlike niacinamide, those are regulated by low (at least in EU). Still don't get how they get away with these high amounts!? ? 🤔
Great question Maja, I was wondering this as well.
