    I saw new product .

    Guys. What do you think? Does this work? As silymarin is water insoluble & available as 80%.

    Silymarin is soluble in glycerin and alcohol. That shouldn’t be an issue.
    At 2.5% they are above even the suppliers recommended range (up to 1%) and I don’t believe they are gaining much function with the higher dose.
    MARKETING at its best.

    I wonder if it does much for your skin beyond what Propylene Glycol would do.
