Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. Talk about multi-purpose! If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Sodium Hydroxide

Buffering

Mixed

Sodium Hydroxide is also known as lye or caustic soda. It is used to adjust the pH of products; many ingredients require a specific pH to be effective.

In small amounts, sodium hydroxide is considered safe to use. However, large amounts may cause chemical burns due to its high alkaline.

Your skin has a natural pH and acid mantle. This acid mantle helps prevent harmful bacteria from breaking through. The acid mantle also helps keep your skin hydrated.

"Alkaline" refers to a high pH level. A low pH level would be considered acidic.

Good for sensitive skin. Cleans my skin very well. I use teice daily on my face- I put it on my hand towel and gently rub.
I also have used it to wash my body and hands.

Don't get it in your eyes. That wasn't fun lol, but I was using it in the shower so I would recommend to just stick with a washcloth for more controlled movement.

Once was certified Mayo Clinic SkinSafe.

If you have an Ace Hardware near you, you can buy it there for cheaper on Amazon.
