Formulation Applications
Serums, gels, creams and lotions requiring a cosmetic solvent. Ingredient properties describe its role in formulation; they do not guarantee the performance or suitability of an untested finished product.
How to Incorporate
Pre-dissolve the selected ingredient in a measured quantity of DMI and incorporate into the appropriate formulation phase. Confirm that the active remains dissolved after dilution, cooling and storage. DMI does not dissolve every ingredient, replace an emulsifier or preserve a water-containing formula. Assess the complete active and solvent combination for safety.
Percentages refer to the total finished formulation by weight unless expressly stated otherwise. They are development guidance, not a universal safe maximum. Use an accurate balance and follow the current raw-material specification. Confirm concentration, processing conditions and suitability through finished-product assessment.
Professional Use and Safety
Incorporate into a properly formulated cosmetic before use. Do not ingest, inject or use as a medicine. Applying oils or creams first does not dilute a raw ingredient applied afterwards. Do not add to a purchased finished product without reformulation and appropriate testing.
Read the Safety Data Sheet before handling and use its specified protective measures. Assess stability, packaging compatibility and microbiological quality, including preservative efficacy where appropriate. The finished-product manufacturer is responsible for safety assessment and compliance in the intended market.
Storage and Technical Documents
Keep tightly closed and protected from contamination, light and moisture. Follow the batch label and current technical documents for storage temperature and shelf life. Request the current JustGlow Safety Data Sheet and batch-specific Certificate of Analysis before formulation.
