  • Vitamin E Acetate: 1%
  • Oil Blender: 3%

Instructions:
Mix all ingredients together. Heat to 70°C and blend at a low speed (not exceeding 500 RPM) until clear and dissolved. Let it cool to below 50°C, then add Vitamin E. Blend or stir until combined.

The staff also confirmed this formula is suitable for cleansing sensitive facial skin.
