Artesian Spring Water (Aqua (Artesian))
Mineral‑bearing water serves as a clean solvent for botanical extraction and balanced pH in gentle cleansers.
Balanced Mineral Profile
Artesian spring water is naturally pressurized and can contain a balanced mineral profile. In cosmetic formulas it serves as a clean medium for dissolving and dispersing actives.
Skin Benefits of Artesian Water
- Acts as a gentle solvent for actives; supports balanced rinse‑off pH
- Mineral content can contribute to pleasant skin feel in rinse‑off formats
Traditional Use & Modern Science
Water quality affects sensoriality and stability; mineral content and pH are controlled during formulation for skin comfort.
Fermentation Advantage (Matter & Magic)
Provides a controlled aqueous environment for stable, low‑temperature fermentations.
Safety & Usage Notes
- Used within a preserved system to ensure microbiological safety

FAQs
Q: Why is artesian spring water used in skincare formulations?
A: It provides a clean, consistent medium for dissolving actives and creating gentle rinse‑off products.
Q: Does artesian spring water contain minerals that improve skin health?
A: Mineral content influences sensorial feel; overall benefits derive from the complete, balanced formula rather than water alone.
Q: How is artesian spring water different from purified or distilled water?
A: Artesian water is naturally pressurized and mineral‑bearing; purified/distilled waters are processed to remove most ions.
Q: How does artesian spring water interact with fermented botanical extracts?
A: It provides a stable aqueous phase for fermentations, supporting controlled extraction of bioactives.
