FAQ
Why is CoQ10 not in the water serum?
CoQ10 is oil soluble, so it belongs in the oil phase of an emulsion or in an anhydrous facial oil.
What niacinamide level is typical?
Many serums use 2 to 5 percent niacinamide, which is the range used in the example.
Do the powders need heat?
Niacinamide and ectoin dissolve in room temperature water. CoQ10 melts with the oil phase at gentle heat.
