“Canvas: Resurfacing AHA & BHA Treatment”
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: salicylic acid.
Anti-blemishSalicylic acid, Aloe barbadensis leaf juiceWorks well
“Resurface dead skin cell build-up for softer skin, clarify clogged pores and whiteheads for clearer skin and diminish excess oil that causes congestion and an oily appearance.”
This product can help reduce breakouts and clogged pores because it contains the following ingredient: salicylic acid. This ingredient is used for treating acne and can have a noticeable effect.
MoisturizingSaccharum officinarum extract, Acer saccharum sap extract + 8 moreWorks
“Boost hydration for a plumper complexion, enhance collagen production for a more youthful appearance and improve the overall appearance of the skin texture.”
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
acer saccharum sap extract, glycerin.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: chondrus crispus extract.
Anti-agingAloe barbadensis leaf juice, Lactic acidNot delivered
