How to make a Natural Facial Cleansing Foam
We will make a mild cleansing foam using SCI, a surfactant with low irritation.
SCI is a mild hypoallergenic surfactant with an anionic surfactant. The foam is rich and mild, and the cleaning power is excellent. You will feel silky and soft after washing your face.
*Tips
This recipe uses SCI powder. SCI generates a lot of dust, so be sure to wear a mask.
