I never thought I would be watching a channel like this, but here I am and understanding this stuff actually has the potential to meaningfully impact my quality of life.

Could someone please help answer where Magnesium fits into all of this and what might be a good way to maximise its penetration transdermally?
You will need to stabilise it effectively, as it is a strong electrolyte and can destabilise a lot of formulas. Please study our Certificate in Advanced Cosmetic Science: personalcarescience.com.au/CosmeticScience/CertificateinAdvancedCosmeticScience-478/ and also consider the evidence and claims you want to make; please study our Certificate in Cosmetic Labels and Claims: personalcarescience.com.au/BrandManagement/CertificateinCosmeticLabelsClaims-1979/
Love your videos! So the penetrates helps with plant oils as well or just esthers? I’m formulating a body butter to help fade stretch marks, I want the benefits of the plant oils as deep into the layers of the epidermis as possible, so I would use a penetrating ingredient to make sure the effects get deeper into the epidermis??
Thanks for watching! The plant oils will just sit at the surface. It’s the active ingredients that may penetrate deeper - you will need to research the efficacy data of the actives to determine which will have the best results.

Hi Belinda, do you know any tips to deliver simple liposomal curcumin through the skin? I was thinking about oleic acid and safe electrical stimulation to open the pores. Do you have any idea about it? Thanks for the high quality content.
Great video as usual! I wonder if there are lipid penetration enhancers that work better than others (eg for anhydrous systems)? I have often read that fatty acid esters such as Dermofeel Sensolv or the Cetiol range (Cetiol CC, Cetiol Sensoft, etc.) contribute to better penetration of the active ingredients while they remain on the surface of the skin like many fatty acids. But their molecular size tend to be smaller than fatty acids and triglycerides. I have never considered the polarity of lipid raw materials in my formulas but rather their other physical properties (molecular weights, viscosity, etc.) and the efficacy data provided by the suppliers. I have also often heard that non-polar lipids (especially those of mineral origin) do not penetrate the skin at all, unlike certain lipid raw materials of vegetable origin, and more particularly the more biomimetic ones such as phospholipids, phytosterols, etc. But maybe they aren't better penetration enhancers than non-polar ones? Anyway, is it even useful to consider the polarity of lipid raw materials? Do you have more information or scientific studies?

Hey, great video! Do you have any suggestions on cosmetic products or ingredients that will enhance and maximize a product's ability to penetrate the hair or can these enhancer be added to hair conditioners too?
Hi Shalom, Thanks for watching and for your interest! Please be sure to subscribe to never miss the latest releases. These enhancers weren’t studied on hair - in general if the cuticle is lifted you’ll get enhanced penetration. Damaged hair the cuticle is lifted! Also molecular weight matters - small molecular weight hydrolysed proteins, for example, can get into damaged hair cuticles for the best results. Happy Formulating!
Skin pH is 5.5; but you need to adjust your formulas to suit the pH requirements/biocompatibilities of the actives and preservatives used in the formula. So you need to consider the actives and adjust the pH to suit.

Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for this video. Pls can one use two different penetration enhancers.
Hi there! Will isopropyl myriatate increase the penetration of niacinamide
Wwooww. Great teacher 🙏
I already got your email of formulas. Can u tell the name of the product you made so that I can look it up.
and just a question, what is the best pH for these products according to skin pH?
Skin pH is 5.5; but you need to adjust your formulas to suit the pH requirements/biocompatibilities of the actives and preservatives used in the formula. So you need to consider the actives and adjust the pH to suit.
Thanks for this great and useful information, i have a question, may i use DMSO as penetration enhancer ? and is it safe to use on skin?
DMSO is prohibited in cosmetic products in the EU, so no.
what if your lipophilic actives dissolve only in ethanol? Can ethanol-dissolved actives be put in without disrupting liposomes?
