How do you get this to dissolve in order to make a serum?

I used aloe vera gel and it worked great (also tried distilled water but did not work at all). EDITED: it only dissolved well when I used 1 tablespoon of aloe vera gel and 1/2 tsp of ascorbic acid. When I tried to dissolve a full teaspoon into 1 tablespoon of aloe vera it didn't dissolve near as well.

I use warm distilled water/oil/or other liquid and haven't had any problem getting it to dissolve. I hope this helps.

You have to shake it a lot as well as wait patiently. I have also set aside a cup and blade from my Magic Bullet just for mixing serums. As far as I know you cannot get it mixed quickly. I start with the ascorbic acid and water and then gather the other ingredients, etc. Good luck.

Mix the clear gel with the sugar prior to adding the liquid. It helps it to not clump as much.

It dissolves in water. This product is more like small crystals rather than a powder - even though it says powder. Don't know - maybe if you used a lot of it or just a little water.

Soak the label in soapy water. It'll dissolve the glue, and paper all at once....

Add the powder to the liquid. Add a little powder and mix as you go so that you can get the right consistency.

It does not dissolve, like sugar or salt dissolves. I wouldn't expect any protein powder to do that. It can form a suspension if you blend it. My comments were about the old non-organic one that they don't seem to be selling any more. I thought it smelled better than the new kind. I haven't tried blending the new one in water or soy milk yet. I've just been putting it in my oatmeal lately.

Mix it according to directions and then very carefully put the tray in your mouth. Wait the whole time it tells you and then carefully pull it out. It's really easy, just follow the directions.

i just put the powder in some jojoba oil i have. it does not "dissolve" and the powder settles to the bottom. if it were shaken, the particles could be suspended enough to be useful.

Yes, you can. I would dissolve it in water first, then add it to the water you fill it with.

I don't know what the melt method is. Sorry I can't be of more help to you. Good luck.

I generally just mix it with purified water. You could mix it with skim milk if you wanted to as well.

Pull plunger out of the top and run or soak in hot water. You just use sugar water inside so it dissolves easily

You'd need a pipette to do this but this would give you a 25% solution to begin. It's a 3:1 ratio. Mix 23 milliliters of distilled water with 8 milliliters of this strength lactic acid. Those numbers are rounded out. Like it would actually be 7.6 milliliters of lactic acid. Or if you wanted the whole bottle at 25%, and the bottle of 1 oz equals 30 ml, then to the 30 ml of acid you'd add 90 ml of water. Or 1 oz of lactic acid and 3 oz of water. Of course you'd then need to purchase 3 more bottles to put the solution in that you just made. No need to suffer too much to look beautiful. Hey? If you wanted a 50% solution that would be a 1:1 ratio. 15 ml : 15 ml. You'd need a pipette to do this but this would give you a 25% solution to begin. It's a 3:1 ratio.

I've used this with a clear nail polish on top. And also with a gel top coat. And it didn't dissolve, it came out really nice. I love it.

I use it for face mask, so I just mix it with a little bit of water using brush. Some people add ~ half a spoon to their shakes. It depends on how you plan to use it.

Make your own Hyaluronic acid serum * Pour 1/2 ounce of distilled water in a small glass container, preferably the one you will use to dispense your serum. A 1/2 ounce or 1-ounce glass pump bottle is ideal. * Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon of hyaluronic acid powder into the water. (NOTE: the powder and water will not incorporate right away). * Cover and leave the mixture to set for 4-8 hours, overnight if possible, in a cool, dry place. * After setting up, the mixture should become a gel. * Once the mixture is set, add preservative (Germaben or your choice, as long as it's safe for water-based cosmetic mixtures) and mix well. * Use this serum twice daily by spreading a small amount (dime size or smaller) over your face and neck, after you cleanse and before you moisturize. This recipe probably will last for a couple of weeks.
