Citic Acid. An essential ingredient for making bath bombs at home.
 
Citric acid, a weak organic acid found in citrus fruits, serves various purposes in cosmetics:
pH Adjuster: It's used to balance the pH of cosmetic products, ensuring they are within the desired range for skin compatibility.
Preservative: Citric acid can act as a preservative, helping to extend the shelf life of certain formulations by preventing the growth of microorganisms.
Exfoliant: In skincare products, citric acid can function as a mild chemical exfoliant, promoting skin renewal and brightness.
Antioxidant: It possesses antioxidant properties, helping to protect cosmetic formulations from oxidation and degradation.
Chelating Agent: Citric acid can chelate or bind to metal ions, preventing them from causing discoloration or degradation in cosmetic products.
Flavouring Agent: In lip care products or flavoured cosmetics, citric acid may be used to enhance or modify taste.
Always adhere to recommended concentrations and formulations to ensure the safe and effective use of citric acid in cosmetics.
