Dehydroacetic Acid
Origin: A nature-identical compound derived from acetic acid (vinegar), approved by COSMOS and ECOCERT.
Function: Acts as a broad-spectrum preservative, protecting against mold and fungi while supporting the overall preservation system’s balance.
Skin Benefit: Exceptionally mild and microbiome-respectful, it preserves product integrity without affecting skin flora. Evaporates completely after application, leaving no residue or buildup.
Benzoic Acid / Sodium Benzoate
Origin: Derived from benzoic acid, a naturally occurring compound found in cranberries, plums, and cinnamon bark.
Function: Provides antibacterial and antifungal protection, often paired with Dehydroacetic Acid to achieve broad, balanced preservation.
Skin Benefit: Recognized as one of the mildest and safest antimicrobial agents, it evaporates quickly from the skin surface, preserving the product without leaving residue or disrupting skin balance.
Luksha formulations are protected with next-generation eco-certified preservatives — the mildest and most advanced systems available in modern cosmetic science.
They work only within the product, not on your skin:
- They evaporate completely after application.
- They leave no residue or buildup.
- They respect the skin’s natural microbiome and barrier integrity.
This intelligent approach makes every Luksha formula safe for even the most sensitive skin, ensuring purity, freshness, and performance without compromise.
