The formula contains sodium hydroxide (an alkali), which is why the skin around the area of application is protected with cream or petroleum jelly, as well as a plant extract and a blend of essential oils:
- Celandine extract is the key active ingredient. It is traditionally used in home remedies for areas of rough, thick skin where a targeted cosmetic effect is needed.
- Tea tree oil is part of the active essential oil blend and is known for its pronounced properties in caring for problem areas of skin.
- Sage, thyme, cinnamon, pine and bergamot oils complement the action of the main ingredients, help refresh the skin surface and contribute to a neater appearance of the treated area.
- Glycerin softens the formula, making it less harsh on the skin.
- The water base provides a convenient texture for spot application.
The combination of several essential oils makes the formula quite intense, which is why the balm is used locally and in small amounts rather than as an ordinary cream for daily care of large areas of skin.
