KEY BENEFITS

  • Helps products remain stable and effective.

Sodium hydroxide

Sodium hydroxide, commonly known as lye, is primarily used in skincare as a pH adjuster rather than for its direct skin benefits. It helps to balance the pH of skincare formulations, helping to prevent skin irritation and supporting the overall function of other beneficial ingredients. 


It is used in small, controlled amounts to ensure safety and effectiveness in cosmetic products.
