Bath, Shower & Soap
Formulating pH balanced, natural bath and shower products with hydration benefits
Bath and shower products are essential for the removal of dirt, bacteria, sweat and other impurities from the skin, promoting cleanliness and maintaining the skin’s natural balance. They also set a good foundation and prepare the skin for the application of other skincare products, enhancing their effectiveness. Formulating products that are gentle for various skin types without causing irritation, preserving pH balance, achieving a balance between effective cleansing, and maintaining skin moisture to prevent dryness however poses notable challenge. Our BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ series enhance formula stability and cleansing effectiveness, while our portfolio of Meadowfoam Seed Oil derivatives offers moisturisation and protection benefits, allowing formulators to develop a range of bath and shower products with natural ingredients, ensuring exceptional product efficacy.
