Science & Benefits

Quillaja Saponaria (Soapbark) is a natural foaming agent derived from the bark of the Chilean soapbark tree. It is extremely rich in triterpenoid saponins, which provide effective cleansing properties and significant anti-inflammatory benefits. For acne-prone individuals, it is an ideal alternative to harsh detergents, as it cleanses the pores while maintaining the skin's acidic pH. As a humectant, it helps bind moisture to the stratum corneum. It is zero-comedogenic and zero-irritant, making it a 'bulletproof' choice for sensitive skin types that require frequent cleansing without the risk of dehydration-induced breakouts.
