Highlights
Free of parabensFree of siliconesFree of sulfatesFree of mineral oilFree of formaldehyde releasersContains EU-26 allergensContains fragranceContains PEGContains essential oilsContains alcohol
Formulation view Water-based gel featuring glycerin and propylene glycol for hydration, enriched with essential oils like eucalyptus and rosemary. Acrylates copolymer enhances film formation, stabilized by chelators. Ideal for post-activity cleansing or soothing. Factory observation: High essential oil concentrations require strict allergen threshold control, while film-formers must balance occlusion and breathability to ensure sensory safety.E · AI inference · to be verified
