firming face base

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 · CAS: 147732-56-7

2. Role in the formula

Palmitoyl tripeptide-1 is a cosmetic lipopeptide. The guide uses a low ppm-to-0.05% framing and does not claim a clinical lift.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• For serums and eye creams, the reference gives about 2–10 ppm of pure peptide, or as the supplier blend states.

Follow the supplier blend TDS. Many trade blends are already diluted.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• The CosIng record for Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, where listed, is informational rather than product-specific authorization.
• For an EU-market product, Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires a safety assessment of the complete cosmetic formula containing Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 for the product in its final form.
• Review the documentation for the actual Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 grade and the filing requirements for the target market.

5. Safety & risk assessment

The percentage is shown for cosmetic development; this reference is not approval for drug use or OTC marketing while finished-product patch and stability testing remain necessary.

6. Stability & packaging

For bulk storage, avoid warmth and direct sun and keep the container closed; where oxidation is a concern, evaluate airless or pump packaging; check the finished batch's stability and package compatibility.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The formulation note describes Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 as part of a cosmetic direction focused on peptide firming.

• This formulation entry provides no basis for drug effects, clinical cures, or unsupported product certifications.
• The cosmetic guidance for Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 should not be cited in support of skin whitening, acne care, sweat reduction, sun protection, or hair-growth outcomes.

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Bakuchiol · CAS: 10309-37-2

2. Role in the formula

Bakuchiol is a meroterpene phenol used around 0.5–1% in cosmetic leave-ons. Do not call it vitamin A or a drug retinoid.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• The guide range for serums and creams is 0.5–1% in this reference.

Oil-soluble. Add in cool-down and protect from light.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• If CosIng lists Bakuchiol, that listing remains ingredient information; check rules for the intended market and use.
• EU cosmetics rules under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 require the final cosmetic with Bakuchiol to undergo a safety assessment for the specific product as it will be marketed.
• Confirm the actual Bakuchiol grade from supplier documentation and check requirements where the product will be sold.

5. Safety & risk assessment

The percentage is shown for cosmetic development; no drug approval or OTC-monograph status follows from this guide with patch and stability testing still needed for the completed formula.

6. Stability & packaging

For bulk storage, avoid warmth and direct sun and keep the container closed; review airless or pump options if oxidation presents a concern; check the finished batch's stability and package compatibility.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• This guide frames Bakuchiol's cosmetic direction around bakuchiol.

• The listed information does not support drug or therapeutic claims, clinical cures, or certification claims not confirmed for the product.
• The formulation record for Bakuchiol provides no basis for whitening, acne treatment, antiperspirant effects, sunscreen use, or hair growth.

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Glycerin · CAS: 56-81-5

2. Role in the formula

The listed glycerin role is that of a polyol humectant in cosmetic washes, gels, and emulsions; the amount is guidance only.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• For gels and serums, the reference gives 3–8% as a formulation guide.
• The level shown for creams is 2–5% in this reference.
• For rinse-off, use 2–4%.

Use the water phase to introduce Glycerin; no melting stage is required.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• CosIng information about Glycerin does not itself authorize a particular grade or finished cosmetic.
• For cosmetics placed on the EU market, Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires a safety review of the finished cosmetic in which Glycerin is used rather than for an ingredient name alone.
• For Glycerin, check the purchased grade against its supplier TDS and review filing requirements in the destination market.

5. Safety & risk assessment

This entry provides guidance for cosmetic use only; the listed level does not itself confer drug or OTC status so the finished cosmetic should receive patch and stability checks.

6. Stability & packaging

Keep the bulk container closed and shaded in a cool area; select packaging with the formula's oxidation sensitivity in mind; check the finished batch's stability and package compatibility.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The cosmetic role of Glycerin is presented as humectant function.

• The ingredient guidance provides no basis for drug effects, cures, or certification claims that go beyond the documented ingredient information.
• This Glycerin listing provides no basis for skin whitening, acne care, sweat reduction, sun protection, or hair-growth outcomes.
