CFI Citric Acid Monohydrate is a food grade fruit acid used in DIY home cleaning, cosmetics, and personal care products where pH adjustment and mineral deposit removal are needed. It is a biodegradable, versatile powder that works across both household and formulation uses. In personal care products, it is often included to help delay discolouration and support vitamin content.
This is a functional acid ingredient, not a preservative and not a ready-made cleaner. Why we love it: Few ingredients work this hard across so many different projects. It is just as useful in a practical cleaning recipe as it is in a thoughtful DIY personal care formula, which makes it a great one to keep on hand.
