Greetings cosmetic fellows
I'm developing some natural and vegan cosmetics, then I need natural/vegan alternatives to my formulations.
Recently I'm having some problems with pH on my facial cosmetics, most of them has acid pH what harms the eyes area, so I need something like Triethanolamine(what is made from petroleum) to rise pH at least for a basic level.
Can you help me?

I can't list it all. I'm looking for something witch has almost the same effect on pH as TEA.
So that said, you could try niacinamide. It's certainly not a strong base so it may not raise pH enough.
@Belassi I'm using the 200x concentrate and ultrez 10. Ultrez 20 would probably work slightly better, but I think the sodium benzoate/ pot sorb and the carbomer will continue to be at odds with each other since they both need different pH ranges to function.
i appreciate your answer and thank you so much.
You could possibly make that work using Ultrez-30 which is a low pH activated carbomer that will thicken at pH 4.0.
