Can we use sepimax zen instead of xanthan gum?

[@safecyber7996]

This is water based serum. Do you have video for oil based serum?

[@tanyawalker1673]

Excellent video Belinda, thanks so much!

[@swiftswift2911]

Thanks for the video. Do 3.5% oils not need an emulsifier, and would xanthan gum alone stabilise it?

[@KittenBowl1]

It’s dispersed. Many gel formulas aren’t emulsified but very small amount of oils are dispersed throughout gel.

[@theinstituteofpersonalcare6401]

Xanthan gum is sufficient to stabilise this amount of oils :) Please email us for full formulation, method and supplier details: [e-mail] we provide this free. Happy formulating!

This video has been VERY helpful and informative! Thanks so much!!🥰

[@maryamfaiz7374]

What you have used to combine oil and water

[@theinstituteofpersonalcare6401]

The rheology modifier will do the stabilising as there is a very low lipid input.

[@codexnamexcocoa]

Excellent video! Hugs from South Africa!

[@bronwyn6704]

Hi IPCS, Niacinimide usually requires a pH of 6, why is it different in this case?

[@theinstituteofpersonalcare6401]

Niacinamide is not actually that pH sensitive - not like vitamin A or vitamin C! It is stable 3.5 - 7.5, so it is fine anywhere in this range

[@octs8855]

Can propanedinol subtituted with sodium lactate?

Great video ! Gonna save my money for another class at IPCS. Regarding this video, I am little bit curious what is the definition of the term "serum" in skincare/haircare, is serum should be in the format viscous liquid/gel/lotion? Because I found "face serum cream", "serum hair mask", in the market and I dont get the point about what is nutritive ingredient is...

[@theinstituteofpersonalcare6401]

Serum is not a gel but not a lotion either - it is such a versatile product form which is why they are so popular! they can also be water based or oil based - this video shows a gel based serum, we'll have to bring out an oil based serum and lotion like serum next!

What do you mean "you need water as a continuous phase "?

[@keyonna]

She means water is the main component... That it is a water based serum vs oil based serum meaning oil would be the continuous phase or the primary component
