Animal Testing: Not animal tested GMO: GMO free (does not contain plant-derived components) Vegan: Does not contain animal-derived components Review: Better than Pre Made Serums.. - Fine enough to work with, not overly large granularity. Like it bc you can add more to whatever base you're using, as your skin adjusts. Can't do that with the pre-made Serums, plus those seem to break me out. Review: great for serums - I've been purchasing skin care products from MakingCosmetics for years - highly recommend! This vit c powder dissolves so easily in distilled water, and once dissolved, I add a couple of drops of vegetable glycerine and/or I break open a Vit E capsule and add that instead, or in addition to the glycerine. Makes a fresh, effective skin serum! ## Features - MakingCosmetics Inc. is a cosmetics ingredient company, following GMP guidelines and serving industry professionals from contract manufacturers to R&D.
