| I'm looking into making my own Vitamin C Serum. Never done anything like this before but am looking forward to venturing into the DIY world. I noticed that there are many different recipes for this on EDS. Would love to get some feedback as to which on has worked for any of you. I'm planning on using it on my face, neck and hands and will eventually incorporate Dermarolling into my routine.Hope to get some responses to help guide me in my DIY Vitamin C choice recipe. Thanks |

You might want to take a look at the last 2 pages of this thread it explains why the second recipe you linked to turns yellow, the ph for formulating with LAA and MAP are not compatible!
http://www.essentialdayspa.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=30503&postdays=0&postorder=asc&&start=1025
This from http://makingcosmetics.com might help explain the yellow color as MAP has a white/yelowish color naturally, also note the correct ph at which it should be formulated at!
Description: Very stable vitamin C derivative (L-Ascorbic acid mono-dihydrogen phosphate magnesium salt) that does not degrade in formulas containing water. Light-stable and oxygen-stable. Purity >98.0 %. White-yellowish powder, mild odor. Soluble in water, may discolor in pH <6, best when used in emulsion based products at pH between 5.5-7. pH Value: 7.0-8.5. CAS# 114040-31-2. |
