*Biotin is sensitive to light and can be easily destroyed by UV light. The formula used should add a UV Filter such as Protec™ UV or Benzophenone-4. To help protect Biotin from the damage of UV light*

The company sells 2 types of Biotin.

1. Biotin Express™ is a liquid that can dissolve in water. Ready to use easily in any recipe. Biotin concentration is 10%. The appropriate usage rate is 1-2%.

2. Pure-Biotin™ is a biotin powder with a purity higher than 99%. It cannot be dissolved directly in the formula. For use, it must be blended to disperse in any formula. The appropriate rate of use is 0.1-0.2%

In any formula that uses Biotin, there should be 3-7% Urea (recommended 5%), which can help transport Biotin into the skin better. It was found that it can help bring more Biotin into the skin at least 2 times compared to formulas that do not use Urea , however, in formulas that use Urea, Triacetin should be added at a rate of approximately 10% of Urea (e.g. Urea 5%, use Triacetin 0.5%) to help control the pH of the formula to prevent Urea from deteriorating.
