BeauSens® PG4

The mild surfactant

INGREDIENT BENEFITS

BeauSens® PG4 is an interesting mild surfactant derived from pelargonic acid (C9), which enables the creation of various formula, like micellar water, serum, makeup remover, maintaing an eco-friendly profile. Sourced from Sunflower Seed Oil (no GMO), it offers a sustainable choice, protecting biodiversity and preserving the ecosystem health.

INGREDIENT story

The common name, “sunflower”, typically refers to the popular annual species Helianthus annuus, or the common sunflower, whose round flower heads in combination with the ligules looks like the glowing sun.
