Description
This strong alkaline compound serves as a pH adjuster and neutralizing agent in skincare formulations, helping to balance acidity levels and enable proper product texture. It's commonly used in very small amounts to adjust formulas during manufacturing rather than as an active skincare ingredient. Due to its highly caustic nature, it requires careful handling and can cause irritation if used in improper concentrations.
