How to use it
Beginner: Add a quarter of the tube to 4 oz of your favorite base cream.
Advanced: This ingredient is recommended for use at up to 1%. Betulinic acid is soluble in ethanol (0.5 mg/ml), but is insoluble in water and oil. This ingredient can have solubility issues, so we highly recommend adding it to a cream to help with any feeling of graininess.
