Formulation Deep Dive

Blossom Essentials Hydration Boost Face Cleanser is formulated as a mild, lipid-enriched aqueous cleanser designed to maintain barrier integrity while removing impurities. The base utilizes a sophisticated surfactant system led by Heptyl Glucoside and Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, providing effective cleansing without the harshness associated with traditional sulfates. This is supported by a moisturizing carrier system featuring Glycerin and plant-derived lipids to prevent transepidermal water loss. The active performance is driven by a synergistic lipid blend of Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Oleosomes, Borago Officinalis (Borage) Seed Oil, and Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, which work together to replenish essential fatty acids and soothe the skin. The formula is stabilized with a dual-thickening network of Xanthan Gum and Hydroxyethylcellulose, and it utilizes a clean-label preservation system comprising Sodium Levulinate and Sodium Anisate to ensure microbial stability.
