    Hello All,

    I am having a similar issue I’ve seen in other discussions with my cream pilling once other things like makeup (foundation) is applied. My formula consists of the following: 

    Distilled Water  40%
    Rose Hydrosol  20%
    Veg Glycerin     5%
    Caffeine           0.50%
    Niacinamide     2%
    D-Panthenol    1%
    MSM                2%    
    Xanthan Gum  0.30%
    Sweet Almond Oil 6.75%
    Naturemulse    6%
    Stearic Acid     2%
    Lauryl Laurate 3%
    Rosehip Seed Oil 5%
    Carrot Oil        5%
    Vitamin E        0.1%
    Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate 0.5%
    L-Arginine 0.05% (If needed to adjust PH)
    Phenylpropanol EHG 0.8%

    I read one comment stating the niacinamide should be added at 70c. Could the issue be that I have been adding it before heating? Any advice is much appreciated.
