Microcrystalline Cellulose is a plant-derived, refined form of cellulose milled into ultra-fine particles. In skincare, it lends a silky, cushioned feel while gently polishing the skin’s surface, helping absorb excess oil and softening the look of texture. A biodegradable alternative to harsh scrubs or plastic microbeads, it’s a thoughtful pick for those who love a refined, soft-touch finish. Suitable for most skin types, including sensitive, when used in balanced formulas.
