The recommended concentration of Q10 is 0.5%. I recently bought Q10 from SkinActives.com and it has strong orange color. Adding it to a white cream at that concentration should turn it pale yellowish. I added 0.5 % Q10 it to my Citrix sunscreen and indeed it became pale yellowish.

Many products claim they contain Q10 like Nivea products but they are not yellowish at all. Is there another form of Q10 that is not orange or we could say these products do not contain enough Q10?

Active Q10 is always yellow. If the product is white, then it probably has too little of Q10.
