Cleansers & Toners AGE REVERSE Bio-Activ Wash Foaming PHA Facial Cleanser

Source: From product name

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (decyl glucoside, polysorbate 20, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate) and should be able to cleanse the skin gently. Still keep in mind that any cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.

Even though this formulation is mild, the following cleansing agents could trigger an irritation or allergy for some people: decyl glucoside, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate

decyl glucoside 3.3% - 5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps oil and water mix together. Can be irritating

polysorbate 20 0.05% - 0.3%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps oil and water mix together

sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate 1.5% - 2.3%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps oil and water mix together and used as a cleansing agent. Can be irritating and is better avoided for sensitive skin

Exfoliation

What does the product description say?

Foaming and gently exfoliating face wash rich in botanicals and Polyhydroxy Acids.

Source: Allbeauty

This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: gluconolactone, maltobionic acid.

gluconolactone 4.9% - 7.4%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that helps shed the dead cells from the skin surface revealing smoother skin. Is believed to be genter than AHAs. It helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can stimulate production of skin's own hyaluronic acid resulting in improved hydration levels. It has been shown to be helpful against acne and clogged pores if used consistently (e.g over a period of 12 weeks) in high enough concentration. It can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin tone with long-term application. Can help neutralize free radicals

maltobionic acid 1.2% - 1.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that helps shed the dead cells from the skin surface revealing smoother skin. Is genter than AHAs. In addition, it helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. It has been shown to be helpful against acne and clogged pores. Might help reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin tone with long-term application. Can help neutralize free radicals
