Suggested final pH
5.0–6.0Provisional targetSuggested development target for this recipe. Measure the finished batch; this target is not a tested shelf-life specification.
These are starting targets for formula development, not measured batch results or validated stability specifications.
Check the finished mixture
Measure after all ingredients, preservative and final water have been incorporated and the HA is fully hydrated. Use a calibrated pH meter suitable for the serum or cream, at room temperature.
If adjustment is needed, use a formula-compatible diluted pH adjuster in small, measured additions; mix and remeasure. Recheck after 24 hours at the same temperature. There is no fixed number of drops that works for every batch.
The target must fit every ingredient and the preservative. Reaching it does not establish safety or shelf life.
Confirm the target and adjuster compatibility before following the guide.
Before preparing this formula
- Source: owner-uploaded recipe cards, read 18 October 2026. Data transcribed into the Recipe Lab format.
- The source treats NR and NAD+ as alternatives. They are different ingredients and cannot be assumed interchangeable; choose and verify the exact material before formulation.
- The liquid amounts total 55 mL before the 1 g powder and preservative. Mixed units do not establish the claimed approximately 50 g yield.
- The card calls the cream liposomal, but the mixing description does not demonstrate liposome formation or delivery.
- The card suggests dark packaging, refrigeration and 2–3 weeks of storage; that duration is not supported by preservation or stability testing. Adding this much liquid may destabilize or dilute a finished cream base.
- Source reference only: confirm exact material identity, active content, suitable use level, base compatibility and preservation before preparing a batch. The cards do not establish a tested shelf life.
INTERACTIVE REVIEW
Preparation outline
- STEP 01
Resolve the ingredient identity and total batch mass before preparing this concept.
- STEP 02
Source sequence: sanitize equipment, combine lecithin with glycerin, then add water and the selected powder.
- STEP 03
The source combines that mixture with a separate cream base, then adds a preservative according to its instructions. This sequence requires compatibility and emulsion assessment.
- STEP 04
Establish preservation, stability and suitable packaging before assigning a storage life.
Use & storage
Topical cosmetic reference only. Keep away from eyes and broken skin. Not for injection, microneedling or lash application.
Confirm preservation, final pH, stability and shelf life for the complete formula. Refrigeration and patch testing do not replace formula safety assessment.
