Formulation view Water-based essence with glycerin and butylene glycol. Features betaine salicylate and papain for gentle exfoliation and antibacterial action. Combined with essential oils and pH buffers. Preserved with 1,2-hexanediol. Factory observation: Papain activity is highly sensitive to pH and temperature; the citric acid buffer system requires fine-tuning to prevent enzyme denaturation.

Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Dipropylene Glycol
- Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- 1,2-Hexanediol
- Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives
- Betaine Salicylate
- Salicylate derivative for keratolytic and antimicrobial action; milder than salicylic acid.
- Betaine
- Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.
- Hydroxyacetophenone
- Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.
- Tromethamine
- pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required
- Octyldodeceth-16
- Not decoded yet
- Sodium Citrate
- Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Papain
- Protease for mild exfoliation; concentration must be controlled to avoid irritation.
- Pogostemon Cablin Oil
- Patchouli oil for fragrance; contains patchoulol, potential irritant/allergen, use cautiously.
- Juniperus Virginiana Oil
- Virginia juniper oil for fragrance/tonic; contains terpenes, irritant, control concentration.
- Capryloyl Salicylic Acid
- Oil-soluble salicylic acid derivative for gentle pore unclogging; milder than BHA, suitable for daily acne care.
- Artemisia Vulgaris Oil
- Wormwood oil, potent essential oil containing thujone; high allergen potential, must stay below threshold and be labeled
- Beta-Glucan
- Polysaccharide for soothing and hydration; high MW acts on the surface, poor penetration into deep dermis.
- Mentha Arvensis Leaf Oil
- Botanical essential oil for fragrance; contains allergenic constituents, sensitive to reactive skin.
