How it works

SS works by utilizing the cleansing properties of Ayurvedic plant saponins, specifically from shikakai and sapindus mukorossi, which help to remove dirt, dead skin cells, and oils from the skin's surface. Sapindus Mukurossi Fruit Extract and Acacia Concinna Fruit Extract act as natural cleansing agents that clean pores and remove impurities. The inclusion of Balanites Aegyptiaca (Desert Date) Fruit Extract helps condition the skin, while Gypsophila Paniculata Root Extract contributes additional cleansing action. Stearic Acid and PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil are used for their emulsifying properties, ensuring the balm maintains a consistent texture. Arginine and Glycerin help condition and hydrate the skin, respectively, maintaining skin balance and moisturization. The product seeks to achieve deep cleaning while respecting skin integrity and promoting the natural recycling of skin oils.
