    Maybe you should try Skinactives.com they have vials of active ingredients you can add to your lotion or maybe even add to your Fair and White lotion to make it stronger.

    Yes if it's dry, ingredient, mix it into a little hot water first then into your cream.

    For the few ones that are totally not water soluble, u could use some Vodka as per DIY :)

    I would start with arbutin and retin-A, but retin-A is prescription not avail as raw material, so you would still have to buy Retin-A cream and blend it into your cream.

    I don't think you should use vodka to dilute and melt the active. Depending if the active ingredient is water-soluble or oil-soluble, along with required temperature for the melting point, and the proper ph. Best to ask the manufacture or chemist for the best advice for the specific active ingredient, in order to receive the best results. If an alcohol is required, usually cetyl, stearyl, cetearyl, etc alcohols are used. Not vodka nor rubbing alcohol. Alcohol In Skin Care Products ? Do They Harm The Skin
