Citric Acid is mild acid derived from plants and citrus fruits like lemons, limes, and grapefruits. It is most commonly used to make bath bombs and bath salts and give them their signature effervescent or fizzy effect.

In its raw state, Citric Acid may also be used to adjust pH levels in cosmetic products, including cleansers and soaps, toners, moisturizers, hair care products and cosmetics, preventing them from being too alkaline.

Citric Acid may be used in skin care products that are meant to exfoliate the complexion as it helps shed the dead skin cells and unclogging pores. This can be beneficial for people suffering from enlarged pores or acne.
