Mamaearth Vitamin C Foaming Face Wash with Turmeric for Skin Illumination 150ml150

Key Ingredients

• Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C): a stable, water-soluble Vitamin C derivative included for its brightening and antioxidant-supportive reputation. The official ingredient panel does not disclose an exact percentage, so no specific concentration can be confirmed
• Curcuma Longa Root (Turmeric) Extract: included for its traditional brightening and soothing reputation; percentage not disclosed
• Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Oil and Citrus Limon Peel (Lemon) Oil: citrus-derived ingredients included for fragrance and a refreshing sensory profile
• Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine: the primary cleansing surfactants in this foaming formula
• Formulation note: Vitamin C and Turmeric extract appear relatively late in the ingredient list (after the primary surfactants and preservative system), which typically indicates a supporting/functional rather than headline concentration -- buyers should not expect the same intensity of brightening effect as a leave-on Vitamin C serum, given both the lower relative concentration and the short skin-contact time of a rinse-off cleanser
• Full confirmed INCI list: Aqua, Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Acrylates Copolymer, Glycerin, Sodium Cocoyl Apple Amino Acids, Sodium PCA, Sodium Benzoate, Cocamide MEA, Sodium Hydroxide, Methoxycinnamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine, Polysorbate 20, Imidazolidinyl Urea, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Oil, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C), Curcuma Longa Root (Turmeric) Extract, Sodium Gluconate, Citrus Limon Peel (Lemon) Oil, Menthol, Food Grade Colors (CI 19140, CI 15985)

Key Features

• Manufactured and marketed by Honasa Consumer Limited (Mamaearth), Gurugram, India; cosmetics license no. S-COS/10/19
• Foaming face wash format combining Vitamin C and Turmeric with a citrus-forward fragrance
• Marketed as suitable for all skin types, SLS- and paraben-free, dermatologically tested
• Note: this formula contains two food-grade synthetic colorants (CI 19140/Tartrazine and CI 15985/Sunset Yellow), which is worth disclosing to customers who specifically seek naturally-derived colorant formulas despite the brand's general "natural" positioning

Benefits

• Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate contributes antioxidant support and may help with the appearance of a brighter complexion over consistent use
• Turmeric extract is included for its traditional soothing and brightening-supportive reputation
• Formulated without SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) or parabens, per the brand's stated positioning
• Note: claims such as "boosts collagen production" appearing in some marketing copy should be understood as brand marketing language rather than established clinical fact for a rinse-off cleanser format, given the short contact time with skin

Who Can Use This Product

• Adults with normal to oily skin looking for a foaming daily cleanser with a brightening-supportive positioning
• Those with known sensitivity to synthetic colorants (CI 19140, CI 15985) or fragrance/citrus oils should review the ingredient list or patch-test first

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: How much Vitamin C and Turmeric does this face wash contain?

A: The official ingredient panel does not disclose exact percentages for either ingredient, so MedEasy cannot confirm specific concentrations. Both appear relatively late in the ingredient list, consistent with a supporting rather than headline concentration.

Q: Does this face wash "boost collagen production" as some marketing suggests?

A: This is brand marketing language. As a rinse-off cleanser with short skin contact time, strong collagen-boosting effects are not well-substantiated for this format; leave-on products are generally better positioned for such claims.

Q: Is this product free of synthetic colorants?

A: No, the confirmed ingredient list includes two food-grade synthetic colorants (CI 19140 and CI 15985), despite the brand's general natural-ingredients positioning.

Q: Who manufactures this product?

A: Honasa Consumer Limited (Mamaearth brand), based in Gurugram, India.

Q: Is this suitable for sensitive skin?

A: It contains fragrance-contributing citrus oils and synthetic colorants; those with known sensitivities should review the ingredient list or patch-test before regular use.
