Why does 온리원 호박 비누 contain 2% pumpkin powder?
Compared to the name pumpkin soap, the pumpkin powder content is listed as 2%, which makes one wonder about its specific purpose. Some readers also want to check whether it meets the standard for being used safely for both facial cleansing and showering.
The 2% pumpkin powder is a formulation tailored to bring out the raw ingredient's color and texture while harmonizing with various plant-based oils so it can be used without burden for both facial and body cleansing[1][2].
Looking first at the 2% figure, the proportion of raw botanical powder blended into a soap significantly changes the shape of the lather and the level of irritation felt during rinsing. Generally, if too much powder is added, the soap loses its firmness and becomes soft easily, so small amounts are finely adjusted and added to lend its unique color and texture without straining the skin. HANAHZO Hanahzo's 온리원 호박 비누 likewise combined various plant-based oils, such as olive oil, coconut oil, and shea butter, based on 2% pumpkin powder[3].
The actual product specifications are also set for both facial and body use for all skin types[4]. This means it is not a strong exfoliating soap, but one that can be used from facial cleansing to showering the body all in one.
hmmm, setting the content at 2% despite highlighting pumpkin in the soap's name is closer to a decision prioritizing the comfortable balance felt by the skin when lathering with water and washing off every morning and evening.
The country of origin of the pumpkin powder or its specific processing method has not yet been confirmed in official materials.
