Hyaluronic acid separation
Hi
Iam making a facial cleanser for dry skin
The formula
Decyl glycoside 10%
Betaine 5%
Caprylic triglyceride 3% with polysorbate 3%
Ceramide 0.5%
Glycerin 5%
Probylene glycol 5%
Germall 0.5%
EDTA 0.5%
Hyaluronic acid 0.2%
The problem is that hyaluronic acid keeps separating from the formula.. i tried high sheer mixer to blend it in but it didn’t work
Any suggestions

What are the steps and phases?
-
Adding glycerin to polyquatrinum 10 with water until dissolved
Then adding decyl glycoside with betaine and adding lactic acid to adjust ph
Then ceramide and germall, EDTA
Then caprylic with polysorbate 20
Finally hyaluronic acid dissolved in water

Did you continue stirring while the hyaluronic acid hydrates? Just wondering about that.

I added it after i dissolved it in water and blended with high sheer mixer

What molecular weight HA are you using? This will probably work with a HA < 50 kDa, but not with higher mw HA
-
Its low MW .. iam not sure how much in specific
Will it be better if i add it to polyquatrinum from the start ??

Did you do a knockout test, just to confirm it’s the HA?
-
No … Can you help me how to do it ??
-
I read about it .. i did it and it was the hyaluronic acid that separated
