What Auguste Skin Says
Product Description:
Auguste Skin’s ChromaExfolia Radiance Gel Scrub is powered by rice beads. This scrub goes beyond exfoliation, improving overall skin texture, unclogging pores, and preparing your skin for enhanced absorption of subsequent skincare products. Elevate your skincare routine with ChromaExfolia Gel Scrub for a brighter, smoother, and revitalized skin experience. Enriched with rice beads, the scrub gently exfoliates, removing dead skin cells for a smoother, softer, and more radiant skin surface. Papaya and dragon fruit contain natural enzymes like papain and bromelain to brighten the complexion, promoting an even skin tone. Antioxidant-rich vitamins A and C from papaya and dragon fruit offer protection against free radicals, combating premature ageing. Marshmallow’s moisturizing touch keeps the skin hydrated, preventing dryness during and after exfoliation. With anti-inflammatory properties, especially from marshmallows, the scrub soothes and comforts sensitive or irritated skin.

Ingredients Details
Carbomer
Common Name(s): Carbopol,polyacrylic acid,carboxyvinyl polymer
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides transparent gel textures and thickening at very low concentrations via ph-responsive swelling.
Why It's Used: The most widely used gel thickener – provides crystal-clear, stable gels at concentrations as low as 0.1-0.5% with ph-controlled viscosity.
How It Works: Highly crosslinked polyacrylic acid remains tightly coiled at acidic ph. neutralization with naoh or triethanolamine ionizes carboxylic groups causing electrostatic repulsion that unfolds and swells the polymer coils, dramatically increasing viscosity. concentration-dependent thickening.
Typically Found In: Gels,serums,emulsions,sunscreens

SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Carbomer's ph-responsive swelling mechanism provides an elegant formulation control tool: a neutralized gel can be liquefied by ph reduction (adding acid) and re-thickened by reneutralization. this reversible rheology control allows two-phase products that mix on application without the need for mechanical emulsification.
