Notes
Preservative: Dermosoft 1388 Eco requires the pH to be > 7 when adding. That is why we
add this to the water phase at the beginning. At the end adjust your pH to around 5 for best
results. Learn all about adjusting the pH of your skincare products here.
Shelf life: If you choose not to add a preservative to the serum the shelf life will be two
weeks and must be stored in the refrigerator. If you add a preservative to your serum it can
be used for up to three months and stored at room temperature.
Tips: For best results apply to damp skin and follow up with moisturizer of choice.
