Formulation view Soap-based cleanser saponifying palmitic/lauric acids with KOH, softened with betaine and glucosides. Contains floral extracts (rose/lavender) and hexanediol preservative. Formulator observation: Strong cleansing power with rich foam, but alkaline pH; botanicals mostly for fragrance; residue risk for lipophilic compounds; best for non-sensitive daily use.

Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Palmitic Acid
- Palmitic acid for emulsification/emollient; solid fat, high melting point, occlusive.
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Myristic Acid
- Saturated fatty acid, saponification feedstock; insoluble alone, pairs with stearic acid.
- Lauric Acid
- Lauric acid for cleansing and emulsification; high comedogenic rating, recommend limiting to 1-2% or combining with other acids.
- Potassium Hydroxide
- Strong alkali pH adjuster, trace usage (<0.1%); corrosive, must be neutralized.
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- Sorbitan Olivate
- O/W emulsifier, HLB ~15, requires ionic co-surfactant, potential sensitizer.
- Cocamide MIPA
- Cocamide MIPA; mild surfactant for foam boosting and viscosity; potential sensitizer at high concentrations
- Rosa Damascena Flower Water
- Aromatic hydrosol base; provides scent and conditioning benefits.
- Lavandula Angustifolia Flower Extract
- Lavender extract for fragrance and toning; contains linalool, potential allergen.
- Salvia Sclarea Extract
- Clary sage extract for sebum regulation and soothing; required labeling as fragrance in lip products, potential sensitization at high levels.
- Hyacinthus Orientalis Extract
- Plant extract for skin conditioning and toning; assess allergen content and stability
- Chamomilla Recutita Flower/Leaf Extract
- Chamomile extract, known for soothing and anti-inflammatory; caution for those with plant allergies.
- Borago Officinalis Extract
- Plant extract for skin care and soothing; high levels of crude extract may sensitize.
- Centaurea Cyanus Flower Extract
- Centaurea flower extract with flavonoids; astringent and conditioning, mild risk at high levels.
- Hydroxyacetophenone
- Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.
- 1,2-Hexanediol
- Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives
- PEG-14M
- Water-soluble PEG surfactant/emulsifier at 1-3%; avoid with strong oxidizers
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Methylparaben
- Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.
- Propylparaben
- Medium-chain preservative; restricted use, pH-sensitive efficacy.
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
