Formulation view A silicone-based gel serum providing occlusion, boosted by polyols. Rich in actives like arbutin, panthenol, and nearly twenty botanical extracts. Suitable for all skin types, ideal for multi-benefit daytime use. Factory observation: Combining numerous water-soluble extracts with a silicone base requires cationic polymers for suspension and stability to prevent separation; the preservation system must handle low water activity in a nutrient-rich environment.E · AI inference · to be verified
