Refreshing Makeup Remover Formula with Gentle Cleansing

I.Refreshing makeup remover ushered in the market tuyere

With the continuous refinement and development of the concept of popular skin care, the makeup remover process has become an indispensable pre-step in the daily skin care process. Consumer demand for makeup remover products is no longer limited to the removal of basic makeup. The skin feels fresh and non-sticky, the texture is transparent and clear, gentle and suitable for all skin types, and the formula is streamlined and safe. It has gradually become the core criterion for purchasing makeup remover.

Mingya has been deeply engaged in the research and development and production of nonionic surfactants and emollient oil cosmetic raw materials for many years. Relying on its own technology, it has created an exclusive oil cleansing raw material OILREE® MY912 (PEG-6 CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC GLYCERIDES). Focusing on this core raw material and cooperating with mild auxiliary surfactants such as Peg 80 sorbitan laurate, it has debugged a complete formula of refreshing makeup remover with scientific formula structure, excellent somatosensory use, and controllable production costs. After multiple rounds of skin feeling debugging, makeup remover efficacy testing, and skin irritation verification, the complete formula system has been put into place to create a makeup remover aquatic product that is highly suitable for the mass consumer market.

II.Streamline the components and build a gentle cleaning system

The overall formula of the complete set of refreshing makeup remover uses deionized water as the base solvent. The amount of each raw material component has been rigorously calculated. The streamlined formula structure removes excess components such as flavors, pigments, mineral oils, and irritating preservatives to minimize the potential sensitization risk of the formula. It is suitable for daily makeup remover use for neutral, oily, and mixed skin. Mildly sensitive skin can also be used with peace of mind after tolerance testing.The logic of the whole set of formula construction revolves around the four core demands of "efficient makeup remover + refreshing and residue-free + long-lasting moisturizing + gentle and low irritation". The selection of each type of raw material and the finalization of the amount of additives have a clear basis for skin care application. Among them, the self-developed raw material OILREE® MY912 is the key to determining the makeup remover's ability to remove makeup and core skin feeling. There is no need to match oil in water emulsion to assist in maintaining stability, and relying on the excellent compatibility of the raw material itself, the system can be transparent and stable.

 

III.The principle of makeup remover

The moisturizing system is an essential part of refreshing makeup remover. During cleansing, surfactants may temporarily remove a small amount of skin sebum, which can cause dryness or tightness if sufficient moisturization is not provided. Therefore, the formula incorporates 5% glycerin and 3% propylene glycol to maintain skin hydration and improve comfort.Glycerin helps attract and retain moisture in the stratum corneum, supporting a smooth and hydrated skin feel, while propylene glycol provides moisturizing and solubilizing functions to enhance formula stability and ingredient dispersion.Through repeated optimization of the moisturizing ratio, the formula achieves a balance between effective cleansing and a refreshing, non-sticky after-feel. Additionally, 0.1% disodium EDTA is added as a chelating agent to bind metal ions, improving long-term transparency, stability, and overall performance of the makeup remover system.

V.Balance cleansing power and skin hydration

The construction of the moisturizing system is a part of refreshing makeup remover that cannot be ignored. During the makeup remover process, the cleansing ingredients will briefly take away a small amount of sebum on the surface of the skin. If the formula lacks moisturizing ingredients, the skin can easily feel tight and dry after the makeup remover is over, so the formula is equipped with two classic small molecule polyol moisturizers: glycerin added 5%, propylene glycol added 3%.Glycerin is a highly versatile moisturizing matrix in the field of skin care. The molecules are small in size and can penetrate into the gap between the stratum corneum, grabbing the water molecules in the environment and locking them inside the skin to maintain the hydration and filling state of the stratum corneum. It is the core component of a high-quality Makeup moisturizer; In addition to assisting in moisturizing, propylene glycol also has excellent solubilizing effects, which can help phenoxyethanol anticorrosive components evenly disperse throughout the water-based system, improving the uniformity of the anticorrosive system, and at the same time slightly enhancing the penetration efficiency of oil cleansing ingredients.

The ratio of the two alcohol moisturizers has been repeatedly adjusted, and the total amount added is restrained and moderate, which can not only relieve the dryness and tightness caused by cleansing, but also will not cause the skin to feel sticky due to excessive alcohol addition.During the long-term storage of many water-based skin care formulas, the calcium-magnesium metal ions inside the water quality will continue to affect the surfactant structure, which can easily cause system stratification, decreased transparency, and attenuation of raw material activity. For this reason, disodium edta with a content of 0.1% is added to the formula. As a chelating agent of the system, it firmly complexes various metal cations in the water to protect the physical and chemical stability of the overall makeup remover system in all directions, ensuring that the product is transparent and uniform in texture during the whole cycle from filling and leaving the factory to consumption by consumers, and the makeup remover effect will not decay with the passage of storage time.

VI.Ensure the safety and long-term stability of product storage

Cosmetic water-based formulas must build a safe and gentle anticorrosive system to prevent the growth of bacteria, mold, yeast and other microorganisms from contaminating the product. Considering that the entire formula focuses on gentle skin care tonality, the R&D team finally selected phenoxyethanol as a single anticorrosive component, and the addition amount was set to 0.4%.The addition ratio is within the safe use range of cosmetics, and the anticorrosive effect is sufficient to completely cover the needs of water-based makeup remover aquatic products during the warranty period, and can effectively inhibit the reproduction of various harmful microorganisms; compared with paraben ester irritating preservatives, phenoxyethanol is more skin-friendly, even if people with sensitive skin types are exposed, it is not easy to produce tingling discomfort, which is a perfect fit for the gentle and refreshing research and development direction of the product.

VII. The practical landing value of the formula

After the formula was finalized, Mingya's R&D team conducted a multi-dimensional application test for this refreshing makeup remover, covering makeup removal power test, skin feeling experience research, skin irritation and human spot patch test, and the formula's room temperature, heat and cold resistance stability investigation. Many contents.In the makeup removal test stage, the daily mainstream base makeup, eye and lip gloss makeup are evenly applied to the simulated skin test card, and the formulated makeup remover water is used to infiltrate the cotton pad and wipe lightly for ten seconds.

All makeup is completely dissolved and removed, without any traces of makeup residue; after three months of storage at room temperature and high and low temperature cycle testing, the makeup remover water quality is still clear and transparent, there is no delamination, turbidity, odor growth, decreased activity and other undesirable phenomena, the system stability performance is excellent, fully proving that this set of self-developed formula has the mature conditions for market-oriented landing.
