Escentia Natural Face Wash Base is a gentle cleansing base made for facial cleansing and easy customisation. It can be used as supplied for a simple, low-fuss wash, or adjusted with compatible additions to create a more personalised formula. The base uses a mild surfactant system and includes preservatives to help support product stability. Its pH range of 6.0 to 8.0 makes it a practical starting point for DIY facial cleansers.

♡ Why we love it: We chose to offer this because it gives makers a simple natural-leaning starting point without having to build a face wash from scratch. It is easy to personalise, biodegradable, and flexible enough for both straightforward and more ingredient-led routines.

Also available in Sample Sizes.
