Key Benefits
Why Formulators Choose Glutathione Powder
- Water-soluble format for brightening serums, gels and emulsions. [R3–R5,R10–R12]
- Typical 0.1–1.0% use range supports practical bench screening. [R11–R12]
- A slightly acidic pH around 4.5–6.0 is a practical formulation-screening range. [R10–R11]
- Reduced GSH is oxidation-sensitive in aqueous systems, so cool processing and controlled air exposure matter during development. [R3–R4,R10]
Typical Applications
- Brightening and radiance facial serums
- Antioxidant creams, lotions and gel-creams
- Uneven-tone and dullness-focused essences or ampoules
- Multi-active brightening formulations
- Age-support moisturizers with antioxidant actives
Quick Formulation Guide

Decision Point |
Practical Buyer Guidance |
|
Typical use level |
0.1–1.0%. [R11–R12] |
|
Phase / solubilization |
Dissolve in deionized water or the aqueous phase. [R3–R5,R10–R12] |
|
Processing |
Add during cool-down or at low process temperature and minimize prolonged heat and air exposure. [R3–R4,R10,R12] |
|
pH screening |
Use pH 4.5–6.0 as a practical starting window, then validate the finished formula. [R10–R11] |
|
Compatibility |
Avoid strong oxidizing systems and screen transition-metal exposure early; validate all co-actives and the preservative system. [R5,R10] |
|
Storage / handling |
Keep tightly closed, dry and protected from light, moisture and unnecessary air exposure. [R3–R4,R10] |

Quality Documents and Supply Review
For purchasing approval, review the current specification and lot documentation for identity, reduced-GSH basis, assay method, appearance and other batch-critical limits.
For bulk quantities, send your quantity, destination, specification and documentation needs before scale-up.
Why Source From Us
- Start with samples scale to bulk orders – one supplier from trial to production: Validate with lab samples, then scale to commercial volumes – same quality, same team. No re-qualification, no project delays.
- Formulation support that actually helps – not just a data sheet: We give you hands-on guidance on solubility, temperature, pH, and compatibility. A real formulation partner, not a catalog.
- Reliable supply chain – consistent quality, on-time delivery, batch after batch: Own manufacturing facilities plus long-term partnerships with audited upstream producers ensure batch-to-batch consistency. Full documentation with every shipment. No "sample passes, bulk fails"
- Export-ready documentation – compliance, customs, cleared：Complete technical documentation packages – COA, MSDS, TDS, stability data – batch-specific and regulatory-ready. We handle the paperwork so your compliance and procurement teams can focus on formulation
