Ingredient callouts

  • A good concentration of Niacinamide (1.90% - 2.80%). Niacinamide is a well-studied multi-tasking active. It is stable, and can work well in almost any hydrating formulation. There is solid evidence that Niacinamide can help support skin barrier, regulate oil production and reduce acne and clogged pores. It also helps to fight photodamage and improve the skin tone, reducing pigmentation marks.
  • Salicylic acid (0.55% - 1.25%). This is an oil-soluble exfoliating acid. Because of this property, it can work inside pores and help reduce the congestion. It has an anti-inflammatory effect and is used to treat acne. Because it is a quite strong exfoliator, be careful with using this product too often: it could result in over-exfoliation.
  • Actives derived from an extract of the Centella Asiatica plant (also known as Gotu Kola) - madecassic acid 0.05% - 0.30%, asiatic acid 0.10% - 0.35%, asiaticoside 0.10% - 0.45% and madecassoside 1.20% - 1.80% The Centella Asiatica Actives, even in low concentration, can help reduce inflammation in skin, strengthen the skin barrier and reduce photodamage. They can also help to decrease scarring.
  • Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 2.20% - 3.30%, glycerin 3.00% - 4.50%, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 4.40% - 6.60% and trehalose 26.00% - 39.00%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
