Magnesium Carbonate Hydroxide

Also known as: Hydromagnesite

Magnesium Carbonate Hydroxide is a naturally occurring mineral compound. In cosmetics, it primarily functions as an absorbent, helping to soak up excess oil and moisture from the skin. It can also be used as a bulking agent, contributing to the texture and volume of formulations.
