Ingredient callouts

  • Ceramides (ceramide np 0.50% - 0.75%). Ceramides are a type of lipids that our skin produces itself. They are a building block of the skin's barrier. Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or extracted from plants. They work well for softening the skin surface and "patch holes" in the skin's barrier.
  • Salicylic acid (0.60% - 0.90%). This is an oil-soluble exfoliating acid. Because of this property, it can work inside pores and help reduce the congestion. It has an anti-inflammatory effect and is used to treat acne. Because it is a quite strong exfoliator, be careful with using this product too often: it could result in over-exfoliation.
  • Actives derived from an extract of the Centella Asiatica plant (also known as Gotu Kola) - madecassic acid 0.45% - 0.65%, asiatic acid 0.45% - 0.65%, asiaticoside 0.45% - 0.65% and madecassoside 0.45% - 0.70% The Centella Asiatica Actives help strengthen and restore the skin barrier, decrease inflammation in skin and neutralize free radicals. They also can help to reduce scarring. The good news is that these actives work even in low concentrations.
  • An effective concentration of Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) - about 0.65% - 1.00%. Panthenol helps strengthen the skin barrier, improve hydration and reduce inflammation in skin.
  • Humectants (sodium acetylated hyaluronate 0.20% - 0.35%, sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer 0.25% - 0.50%, zinc pca 0.35% - 0.65%, biosaccharide gum-1 0.60% - 0.85%, glycerin 0.65% - 1.00%, panthenol 0.65% - 1.00%, hyaluronic acid 0.70% - 1.05%, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 0.70% - 1.00% and sodium hyaluronate 1.60% - 2.00%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
