Description
Botanical Composition (1:1)
• Cassia Proprietary Blend™ — a 1:1 blend of carefully selected botanicals standardized for saponins, flavonoids, and alkaloids.
Positioning (R&D note)
This extract is the outcome of 4+ years of field testing and formulation work, combining two time-tested botanicals traditionally used across West African communities for acne, ringworm, eczema and related skin concerns.
Why this blend works
• Cassia — broad-spectrum antimicrobial (antibacterial/antifungal) and anti-inflammatory; rich in flavonoids, saponins, anthraquinones.
Compatibility with common actives
Plays well with niacinamide, alpha-arbutin, licorice extract, lactic acid, panthenol, aloe, chamomile, oat, and barrier-supporting humectants/soothers.
Usage tip: If pairing with salicin (natural BHA), keep salicin ≤ 2%. Example: 2% Acne Extract + 1% salicin (tune per formula goal/skin feel).
