We often notice that the ingredients such as essence can be found in the commonly used facial cleansers, lotions, lotion, face cream, etc. What are the functions and effects of this essence added to skin care products? Is it safe? Let's take a look~
1、 What is essence?
This is a very sensitive topic, and the specific formula cannot be disclosed, because it involves the trade secrets of the brand formula. The essence known to ordinary audiences is also called blended flavor, which is a mixture of more than two flavors prepared manually.
The essence of skin care products refers to the added odor ingredients in addition to the raw materials of skin care products.
In the face of a cosmetics, if its appearance is attractive enough and its fragrance is pleasant, sisters' hearts tend to sink faster, so many high-end brands pay great attention to the cosmetics fragrance. Like perfume, it has a sense of hierarchy of front, middle and base note, to create differentiation advantages, and to ensure that consumers get the best sensory experience in the use process.
However, some sisters complain that the root cause of skin allergy is the essence in skin care products. So far, these sisters have turned pale when they encounter essence.
2、 Main functions of essence
1. Cover the smell of raw materials
Many effective raw materials in cosmetics contain special smell, which is also the original smell after fermentation and purification of plants. However, some of them are very obvious odor, which is unacceptable. Adding essence to cover the odor of the raw materials of these products is simple and economical.
2. cater to consumers' preferences
When we buy skin care products, we always like to try them on our hands first, and we can also smell whether we like it or not. In fact, everyone cares about the smell of the product.
These scents also represent the ingredients claimed by a certain product. For example, a certain skin care product is advertised to contain coconut oil and skin care ingredients, and the smell is also coconut milk fragrance. You don't really think that this product contains so much coconut extract, but it is actually made of essence.
3. Sensory suggestion
What are the senses? What you see, hear, taste, smell and touch all belong to the five senses, and the smell is one of the important senses for cosmetics.
For example, skin care lotion with the same composition, one containing high-end essence A, and one containing low-grade essence B, which can completely change consumers' acceptance of the product.
But it is hard to imagine that these two types of skin care lotion are the same raw materials, different essence.
The same consumer will feel that the quality of products with essence A is higher than that of products with essence B. This is also the result obtained by the formulator during the new product test!
