Acids & Alkalis

Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), including citric acid and lactic acid, are versatile cosmetic ingredients used for exfoliation, pH adjustment, and preservative support.
Alkaline ingredients are commonly used as buffering agents to adjust and stabilise pH levels. Sodium bicarbonate is also used in the fun and creative process of making bath bombs.
Whether formulating professional skincare products or creating handmade bath bombs, acids and alkalis are essential ingredients for achieving balanced, high-quality cosmetic formulations.
