Why It’s So Good
Every Natural ingredient in this base has a job — and they do it beautifully.
Coco-Glucoside delivers a gentle, skin-friendly cleanse without disrupting the skin barrier. Glycerin and Propanediol work together to hydrate and soften, leaving skin feeling comfortable, never tight. More than just a thickener, Xanthan Gum gives this base its signature silky glide — ensuring your cleanser feels as good as it performs. Sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate product stability — this base is simple, purposeful, and designed to let your creativity shine.
And just as important as what’s inside — is what’s left out. This base is completely free from sulphates, synthetic fragrances, PEGs, harsh surfactants, and artificial thickeners. No unnecessary fillers. No shortcuts. Just a clean, modern formula built for skin — not foam.
Ingredients
INCI: Coco-Glucoside, Glycerin, Propanediol, Xanthan Gum, *Sodium benzoate, *Potassium sorbate
*These three ingredients form the natural preservative used in this base.
Plant-derived. Naturally effective. Nothing extra.
🌱 Coco-Glucoside
A gentle, biodegradable cleanser naturally derived from renewable plant sugars. It’s what gives this base its creamy, low-foaming lather—lifting away dirt and excess oil without disrupting the skin barrier.
💧 Glycerin
A natural humectant that draws moisture into the skin and helps maintain hydration during and after cleansing. It leaves skin feeling soft, soothed, and comfortable.
🌿 Propanediol
A plant-based ingredient (derived from corn sugar) that enhances skin hydration, improves the glide and feel of your product, and supports natural preservation—helping skin feel fresh and nourished.
✨ Xanthan Gum
A naturally-derived thickener and stabiliser, giving this base its smooth, gel-like consistency while helping to lock in hydration and improve skin feel.
How To Use
⚠️ *Important: This base includes a built-in preservative system, allowing you to safely dilute up to 1 part base to 2 parts distilled water. If you wish to dilute further, we recommend adding an additional appropriate preservative to your final product for safety.
This is a concentrated gel base — designed to give you full control over your final product.
Simply add distilled water to achieve your desired texture and skin feel. The below is a guide.
→ Thick & Decadent Gel Cleanser (Ideal for deep body cleansing)
1 part Gel Base : 0.5 parts Water
→ Everyday Facial Gel Cleanser (A luxurious, balanced clean)
1 part Gel Base : 1 part Water
→ Lightweight Hydrating Gel Cleanser (Perfect for a refreshing, gentle cleanse)
1 part Gel Base : 2 parts Water
How to Dilute with Water:
-
Always use distilled or filtered water for dilution — this helps prevent microbial growth and maintains clarity.
-
Slowly add pre-measured warm distilled water, blending very gently to prevent the mixture from forming excess air bubbles.
-
Allow your diluted mix to settle overnight for the best clarity and stability.
*For thicker results, see Thickening Tips below.
How to Add Other Water-Based Ingredients:
Want to go beyond distilled water? No problem.
You can substitute part (or all) of the water content with other skin-loving, water-based ingredients to truly make this cleanser your own.
Simply follow your chosen dilution ratio, and replace the water portion with your desired ingredients.
Water-Based Ingredients You Can Potentially Use:
-
Floral Waters / Hydrosols, Aloe Vera Juice, Cucumber Water, Herbal Infusions (Green Tea, Calendula, Chamomile), Glycerites (Plant extracts infused in glycerine), Panthenol (Vitamin B5 solution), Botanical Extracts (water-soluble)
How to Add Colour:
-
Once you have achieved your desired concentration, add a few drops of our Natural Colour Extracts.
-
Gently stir the colour in, and adjust with more drops until you have achieved your desired colour.
How to Add Essential Oils & Carrier Oils
*Always patch-test a small area before initial use.
1. Choose Skin-Safe Essential Oils
Select high-quality, skin-safe oils like lavender, tea tree, peppermint, or eucalyptus.
Avoid phototoxic oils (e.g., cold-pressed citrus) or known irritants in rinse-off products.
It is not recommended to use essential oils on the face, if you wish to, only add small amounts to the base and ensure it is well-solubilised.
Please note that some essential oils may thicken or thin out the mixture
2. Use the Right Ratio
🗸 A general guideline is 0.5%–1% of total product weight.
For example: In 100g of soap, use 0.5g to 1g of essential oil/carrier oil.
Always refer to the specific usage recommendations for your chosen essential oil—some oils are more potent or sensitising than others.
⚠️ Essential oils are powerful—more is not always better. When in doubt, start low and increase cautiously.
3. Blend Gently
Add essential oils, a few drops at a time and stir gently to combine.
Avoid vigorous mixing to prevent excess air bubbles.
Note: Some oils may naturally separate. A quick shake before use can help—but for a more permanent solution, see below.
Optional: Use a Solubiliser - For a Crystal-Clear Finish
If your base looks cloudy or separates:
-
Add a professional solubiliser, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
-
This helps disperse essential oils evenly in the water-based formula.
Always Patch Test First
Apply a small amount to the inside of your wrist or elbow. Wait 24 hours before wider use.
Thickening:
💡 Want to thicken it? Once you have diluted the concentrate, you can re-thicken your product by adding in extra melted base or blending in additional gums. Salt solutions will not thicken this product.
