03 / The ingredients
The ingredients
saponin — a compound that naturally makes foam in many plants; it is what lets the oil rinse clean with water, without a surfactant so harsh it strips all the moisture out.
wildflower honey — the same honey this brand begins its story with, gathered from the Huay Hin Lad Nai community forest in Chiang Rai, kept by the Pgaz K'Nyau. in this formula it keeps the skin from feeling tight and dry after rinsing.

04 / The bridge back to the forest
The bridge back to the forest
the honey in this bottle is not set dressing. it is the brand's hero ingredient, placed at the first step of the face routine.
the forest is still standing because people know how to keep it standing; the honey is the result of that knowledge. our part is to bring it into the formula without changing where it comes from.
THE FOREST IS THE FORMULA
