Description
This natural thickening agent derived from carob pods helps create the smooth, gel-like texture in creams, lotions, and serums. It works by increasing the viscosity of formulations, allowing products to spread evenly and maintain their consistency. Considered extremely safe with minimal risk of irritation, making it suitable for sensitive skin types.
