As skin becomes increasingly sensitive to environmental aggressors, the importance of gentle cleansing has never been more important. Our formula uses natural ingredients to create a rich lather, which gently cleanses sensitized skin. What naturally derived, hypoallergenic cleansers has GNS discovered?

Its amphiphilic nature reduces surface tension and absorbs at the oil-water interface.

Most surfactants are synthetic and produced by chemical processing of petroleum-based oil. While possessing good cleansing properties, they need to be carefully used since they may be harmful to the skin by causing percutaneous toxicity, damage to the skin barrier, and xeroderma. In that regard, GNS presents non-artificial and herbal components called saponins.

Natural Surfactant Market Potential
Cosmetic ingredients are becoming safer and more transparent, thanks to cosmetic ingredient analysis apps, beauty YouTubers, and "check-sumer" who are highly conscious about cosmetic ingredients. Consumers are looking for gentle cosmetic products with safe ingredients.
As natural surfactants have a lower level of toxicity and are biodegradable, they are less reactive than chemical surfactants and are therefore expected to expand further in the cosmetics market that focuses on eco-friendly and ethical values.

Is saponin good for the skin?
The word "saponin" comes from the Latin word "sapoy" meaning "soap". The saponin in plants naturally produces a lather as an activator when it is dissolved in water.

Is saponin also eco-friendly?
Plant-based substance "saponin" with natural lathering and cleansing capacity does not disturb nature and fits well with the natural cycle. Clean and pure skin can be an extra benefit.

Soapberry Plant Story
As the skin of the soapberry fruit contains a large quantity of saponin, it produces a lather when rubbed with water and has been used as a natural cleanser for laundry or hair washing. "Boncho-Gangmok" states that washing the face with soapberries helps brighten skin and remove freckles.

GNS has developed a unique soapwort extract with an ultrasonic extraction at a low temperature, which minimizes the deterioration of active compounds in soapwort and maximizes the efficacy of saponin.
