Key Actives
camellia sinensis leaf extract
0.95% -
1.2%
Irritation risk:
Works for:
Anti-oxidation,
Antibacterial,
Anti-aging,
Anti-blemish,
Evens skin tone,
Moisturizing
Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds (abbreviated ECG, GCG, EGC, and EGCG) that might help protect the skin from free radicals. Can help calm down inflammation and has some anti-bacterial properties. Unfortunately, these antioxidants are unstable and lose their effectiveness very quickly in products. The concentration of the antioxidant compounds in the extract also tends to be low to be effective in topical formulation
lactic acid
0.55% -
0.8%
Irritation risk:
Works for:
Exfoliation,
Evens skin tone,
Moisturizing,
Anti-aging
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)
