Formulating Effective Products With Salicylic Acid
Salicylic acid is a fantastic ingredient for skin and hair care but if you have ever tried formulating with it you’ll find that it can be frustrating!
To begin with, salicylic acid has many benefits…ranging from:
- Antibacterial property for acne prone skin
- Anti-blemish and skin brightening properties through exfoliation for uneven skin tone…
- And anti-inflammatory properties for sensitive skin.
But creating stable and effective products with it can be really difficult!
Many formulators try to use alcohol to dissolve it to avoid recrystallization but that would require using alcohol at a high concentration and that can be drying to the skin.
And, if you choose the way of glycols e.g. propanediol 1,3, you’ll also require a high amount and this can significantly increase your formulation cost.
Even with the use of alcohol and glycols, most often you’ll still experience precipitation (white particles that form while formulating products with salicylic acid).
Or recrystallization (sharp shards that look like broken glass) which appear a few days after making your products.
So you need much more than just alcohol or glycol to strike a balance between formulating salicylic acid products that are very effective, safe, stable and formulating at the best cost that allows you to make enough profit!
