Formulation view Sugar-based body polisher with physical exfoliation, formulated on an olive oil and ester base with eucalyptus extract and Vitamin E. Emulsifiers create a balm-like texture. Rinse thoroughly to prevent clogging. Formulator's note: Complex natural oils and fragments increase sensitization risk; the high-fat base combined with abrasive particles demands high skin tolerance to friction.
