Science

Mechanism of Action

Operating as a surfactant, Potassium Sunflowerseedate significantly reduces the surface tension of liquids, enabling the efficient emulsification of oils and water. This mechanism facilitates the thorough removal of environmental impurities and excess sebum from the skin. Furthermore, its inherent properties allow it to stabilize diverse cosmetic emulsions and enhance the skin's capacity for moisture retention.
