Radiance+ Mousse Hydrating Foam Cleanser - 100 ml: NABL Lab Test Report
NABL lab test report for Radiance+ Mousse Hydrating Foam Cleanser - 100 ml: pathogens absent and pH 8.16. Batch BX4A016.
Safety Summary: Radiance+ Mousse Hydrating Foam Cleanser - 100 ml
Is Radiance+ Mousse Hydrating Foam Cleanser - 100 ml safe? Yes. It was independently tested at Sigma Test & Research Centre, a laboratory accredited by NABL (Accreditation No. TC-5369). The tested sample, from batch BX4A016, was analysed against the limits in the referenced standards.
Free from harmful bacteria and fungi. Four organisms were tested: Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. All were reported Absent. Total microbial count was Less than 10 cfu/gm (limit 1000 cfu/gm); Total yeast & mould count was Less than 10 cfu/gm (limit 100 cfu/gm).
Gentle, skin-friendly pH. The measured pH is 8.16, which is mildly acidic.
Sulphate-free and paraben-free. The published ingredient list contains no sulphates, parabens or mineral oil. It cleanses using milder amino-acid surfactants - decyl glucoside and coco-glucoside (and) glyceryl oleate. Preservation uses phenoxyethanol.
Is it chemical free? No cosmetic is chemical-free - water itself is a chemical. This one is free from sulphates, parabens and mineral oil.
What these results cover. The laboratory findings apply to the tested sample from batch BX4A016 and the parameters listed on this page. Skin tolerance is assessed separately, in the dermatological patch test certificate. NABL accredits laboratories, not products.
