Improving lactic acid moisturizer
Hello, I’ve been making quite a good and likeable anti-aging formula , containing lactic acid and retinyl palmitate. I would like advice on how to improve the formula and also make it cheaper if possible.
Clients want a thick, not too-oily cream, packed in a jar
Formula
Water phase 70%
lactic acid - 6%
glycerin - 2%
propylene glycol - 3%
allantoin - 0.5%
acacia gum - 5%
salicylic acid - 0.2% ( only as preservative)
Aqua - qsOil phase 28% ( maybe it should be lower %? )
Tego Care 450 emulsifier - 3% ( INCI: Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose distearate)
Stearic acid - 4%
Cetyl Palmitate - 6%
Shea butter - 3%
Sunflower oil - 12%Cold phase - Retinyl palmitate 2%, fragrance
Keep in mind that in my country I could barely obtain any ingredient, there are almost no cosmetic supply companies and I have to use lab suppliers
