Rice Water Moisturizing Body Wash with Rice Water & Hydrating Lily for Dewy Glass Skin - 250 ml + 25 ml: NABL Lab Test Report
NABL lab test report for Rice Water Moisturizing Body Wash with Rice Water & Hydrating Lily for Dewy Glass Skin - 250 ml + 25 ml: pathogens absent and pH 5,.3
Safety Summary: Rice Water Moisturizing Body Wash with Rice Water & Hydrating Lily for Dewy Glass Skin - 250 ml + 25 ml
Is Rice Water Moisturizing Body Wash with Rice Water & Hydrating Lily for Dewy Glass Skin - 250 ml + 25 ml safe? Yes. It was independently tested at Sigma Test & Research Centre, a laboratory accredited by NABL (Accreditation No. TC-15193). The tested sample, from batch AP4L136, 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 and mould count was Less than 10 cfu/gm (limit 100 cfu/gm).
Gentle, skin-friendly pH. The measured pH is 5,.34, which is mildly acidic.
Sulphate-free and paraben-free. The published ingredient list contains no sulphates, parabens, silicones or mineral oil. It cleanses using milder amino-acid surfactants - cocamidopropyl betaine, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate and decyl glucoside. Preservation uses phenoxyethanol and sodium benzoate.
Is it chemical free? No cosmetic is chemical-free - water itself is a chemical. This one is free from sulphates, parabens, silicones and mineral oil.
What these results cover. The laboratory findings apply to the tested sample from batch AP4L136 and the parameters listed on this page. Skin tolerance is assessed separately, in the dermatological patch test certificate. NABL accredits laboratories, not products.
