Product summary

"Bueno - Cactus Peeling Pore Toner" is effective for: Anti-aging, Exfoliation, Moisturizing, Anti-blemish and Evens skin tone

Ingredient callouts

  • A good concentration of Niacinamide (1.90% - 2.90%). Niacinamide is a well-studied multi-tasking active. It is stable, and can work well in almost any hydrating formulation. There is solid evidence that Niacinamide can help support skin barrier, regulate oil production and reduce acne and clogged pores. It also helps to fight photodamage and improve the skin tone, reducing pigmentation marks.
  • This product contains acids (lactobionic acid 1.00% - 1.50% and gluconolactone 1.50% - 2.30%). Their concentration is low, and they will not have a strong exfoliating effect. Instead, they work to support the skin natural acid mantle and to attract water (as humectants). PHAs (lactobionic acid and gluconolactone) especially are great for improving skin hydration. They might be even able to stimulate the production of skin's natural humectants and support the healthy skin microbiome.
  • Peptides (sh-decapeptide-7 0.05% - 0.15%, sh-pentapeptide-19 0.05% - 0.30%, sh-octapeptide-4 0.10% - 0.30%, sh-oligopeptide-1 0.10% - 0.45%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.15% - 0.65% and acetyl octapeptide-3 0.20% - 0.70%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
  • Adenosine 0.40% - 0.90%. It is a compound that in involved in many biological processes inside the skin cells. According one high-quality clinical trial, topical Adenosine in low concentrations can somewhat help improve "deep wrinkles" - the wrinkles that appear with age in places where our faces are most dynamic (for example, on the forehead or in the corners of the eyes).
  • In addition, this product contains Allantoin (0.45% - 1.10%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
  • Humectants (acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.15% - 0.65%, acetyl octapeptide-3 0.20% - 0.70%, sodium hyaluronate 0.20% - 0.75%, trehalose 0.45% - 1.00% and glycerin 4.30% - 6.50%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
