In a few words

Do not eat it, it is a face mask! Its surprising texture and gourmand perfume make it look like caramel. It is formulated with a high amount of cetyl alcohol and glycerin which give it an intended soaping effect, and hydroxypropyl guar which brings this stringy texture. Emulium® Dolcea MB creates the emulsion but also helps to rinse it off.
