  SAP with Niacinamide

  Posted by Eugene on October 4, 2024 at 4:30 am

  Hello formulators!
  Quick question:
  Is it ok to pair Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate and Niacinamide in one formulation?
  Both components need high PH 6-7. Also is it a normal PH for sensitive skin?

  Thank you!

  Yes you may combine the two. That range serves mainly for the sake of solvency not efficacy. Niacinamide (aka: nicotinamide, but nobody likes to call it that) is a tautomer so it does have a hydrogen relocated depending on the solution pH. Now, you ask is neutral pH OK for sensitive skin? Yes, of course it is.
