Product summary
What can the product work for?
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Rejuvenating vitamin A, antioxidant vitamin E and essential fatty acids-rich Abyssinian oil provide instant hydration to hands, while exfoliating lactic acid works to smooth skin and correct imperfections.
retinol
0.2% -
0.35%
Irritation risk:
Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH
Two steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, retinol is proven to be effective against all signs of aging. It improves skin cell turnover, helps fight blemishes and clogged pores, can regulate excess oil production and even skin tone. It can, however, be quite irritating
lactic acid
0.2% -
0.4%
Irritation risk:
Concentration: Insufficient!
An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiome)
Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
Soothing honey, avocado and sweet almond add to the feelgood factor of EVE LOM Time Retreat Hand Treatment, bathing hands in rich moisture with enduring hydration.
