Ingredient callouts

  • Exfoliating acids (lactic acid 0.05% - 0.10%). In this concentration, they will have a noticeable exfoliating effect. They can also have an anti-aging effect and stimulate collagen production in a long-run. PHAs (gluconolactone 5.60% - 8.40%) in this product also work for improving skin hydration. They might be even able to stimulate the production of skin's natural humectants and support the healthy skin microbiome.
  • This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in this product it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (0.95% - 1.45%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
  • Humectants (fructose 0.10% - 0.40%, glycerin 0.35% - 0.80% and betaine 1.50% - 2.20%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
