Citric Acid
Citric Acid is commonly found in fruits that belong to the ‘Citrus’ family such as orange, lemon, lime, etc. However, this acid's manufactured version is quite different from the naturally occurring citric acid and used in various purposes. This form of citric acid that we offer, manufactured through a fermentation process by using carbohydrates. Citric acid is a powdered mixture of white colour that is odourless.
The pH value of citric acid usually around 2.2 in 0.1% of the solution. Moreover, this powder is water-soluble as well. It is suitable for most skin types, and people of all age groups can use it without any side effects. However, people who have sensitive skin can test it on the elbow before using it directly.
Citric Acid used as one of the cosmetic ingredients in skincare products. This acid mostly used as a preservative in cosmetic products and sodium salts and potassium, it is sometimes used for balancing the acid-base ratio of the formulae.

Also, it reduces your skin pores' size to give your skin a more even and smooth appearance and softer feel. It does this by unclogging the pores and eliminating dirt, sweat, and other impurities from them.

- Used as pH Stabilizer: You can also use it as a stabilizer and to keep the pH level of the products between 2.5 and 6.5.
- Helps Balance Skin pH: Apart from direct skin benefits, citric acid also used for adjusting the pH level of the cosmetic formulas. It can prove to be useful in increasing the acidic properties of the products or for reducing the alkaline properties as well.
- Chelating Agent: The Chelating effect of citric acid makes the minerals neutral which results in improving the anti-oxidizing properties and also enhances its effectiveness as a preservative.
