    Hi, i just found this case in my formulation. I used to adjust pH around 6-7, bc one of raw material(cooper peptide) is very sensitive to acidic condition. I tried to add NaOH solution to adjust the pH until that range, but overnight the pH decrease around 4-5 and the color changes to yellowish green.

    Can you suggest me what material should i add to the bulk to maintain the pH still in 6-7 range?

    Thank you.

    Ya i want to make it dual phase. Water in bottom layer and oil in top layer. And it will be shake before use, so the layer mix together. I want it to separated again in 2 layers after shake. But in my trials, the layers became 3 layers, oil in top, water in bottom, and a white layer between.

    I want it to be separated as 2 layers not 3 layers.

    I use olive oil 3.5%, almond oil 1%, grapseed oil 0.3%, vit. E 0.2%

    in water phase i add extracts 2%, BG 5%, glycerin 1.5%, sodium hyaluronate 0.05%

    Is it possible to use the buffering system like sodium citrate? Just to keep the pH above 5.5, then it won’t turn to yellowish green appearance ?

    I don’t use chelating agent. I use spectrastat PHL as preservative

    Yes, i adjust the pH before adding copper peptide. I really confuse why the pH still decrease.

    I use the ferment fruit extract as active and caprylhydroxamic acid mixture as preservative the formula. Maybe it suspected that cause the pH decrease?
