About WHEAT BREAD POWDER
A gentle physical exfoliant made from dried, powdered wheat bread. Provides mild abrasive action along with ferulic acid and B-vitamins from the grain, helping to condition and soften skin.
Detailed Analysis
Wheat Bread Powder is produced by drying and finely grinding wheat bread. It functions as a mild physical exfoliant with particles small enough to avoid micro-tears. Contains ferulic acid (a potent antioxidant), small amounts of B-vitamins, and amino acids from wheat protein. Suitable for sensitive skin formulations when particle size is controlled.
