Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read
Read on 2026-09-21
What is this product?
A rinse-off cleansing balm built on esters and PEG emulsifiers with propolis extract and the amino acid serine added at disclosed trace amounts. Suitable if you want a melting balm cleanse; skip it if fragrance allergens are a concern.
What makes it different?
The formula discloses exact amounts for two of its hero ingredients, serine at 1.373 ppm and propolis extract at 0.2 ppm, which is uncommon transparency for a cleansing balm. Carrot-related extracts and carrot seed oil appear mid-list, and tocopherol plus beta-carotene sit at positions 10 and 11. Fragrance and three fragrance allergens, geraniol, citronellol and linalool, appear near the end of the list, so sensitive users should note them.
