I don't have any good recipes on hand (sorry if I got your hopes up when you saw the reply! LOL.) But I thought I should mention that retinyl palmitate is oil-soluble so if you want it in something water based you would have to use an emulsifier, etc.
I am only mentioning this because some people on forums mistakenly think they can mix oil soluble ingredients into a water-based gel or toner with no emulsifier.
You could probably add a small amount of it to a cream without compromising the preservative system, or mix a drop of it in with your moisturizer right before you apply it every day. |

You are absolutely correct, Chlorophyll.

Maybe you can try to check a video on youtube, hoping that it will help. It is a DIY recipe for retinyl palmitate serum. Tell us your thoughts afterward.

I know serum sounds fancy but honestly, just mix in the Retinyl Palmitate straight into a pre-made face cream. It will work and no need to be in a serum form. Unlike vit C.
