Solid Cleansing Oil Balm

(Formula #100-17A)

Solid Cleansing Oil Balm

Formulation highlights:

Meadowfoam Seed Oil XPR contributes substantive texture/after-feel, while Daikon Seed Extract balances any potential greasiness for a smooth feel. Botanically based preservatives include honeysuckle extract and honeysuckle flower extract.
