,A gentle nightly peeling cream formulated with 5.5% glycolic acid to renew skin texture, brighten the complexion, and reduce dullness, all while maintaining skin tolerance.
Benefits:
– Acts as a soft chemical exfoliant to remove dead skin cells.
– Improves skin texture and smoothness.
– Reduces the appearance of enlarged pores.
– Enhances natural radiance and brightness.
– Stimulates mild cell renewal and collagen synthesis.
– Works overnight without needing rinsing.
Main Ingredients and Their Benefits:
– Glycolic Acid (5.5%): gently exfoliates by dissolving the “glue” between dead skin cells, smoothing skin texture, reducing dullness, refining pores, and stimulating collagen renewal.
– Paraffinum Liquidum (Mineral Oil): Creates an occlusive barrier to lock in moisture, prevent trans-epidermal water loss, and maintain hydration during exfoliation.
– Ammonia: pH adjuster (buffering agent) to maintain acidity for the glycolic acid to act effectively while preserving skin tolerance.
– Palmitic Acid & Stearic Acid: Fatty acids that act as emollients and help reinforce skin barrier, providing mild occlusion and softness.
Precautions:
– Use only in the evening, 2–3 nights per week (not nightly for beginners).
– Avoid the eye area and lips.
– Always wear broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, especially whilst using the product and for one week after stopping it.
– Do not combine with other strong exfoliants (chemical or physical).
– Do not apply to sensitive, broken, or recently shaved skin.
– Perform a patch test 24 h prior (e.g., inside elbow).
– Avoid use during summer or on sunburned skin.
– Not recommended during pregnancy or for children under 12 unless cleared by a physician.
Side Effects:
– Transient tingling or mild stinging (normal, usually subsides in minutes).
– Mild redness or slight exfoliation peeling.
– Overuse may cause sensitivity, dryness, or irritation.
