Ingredients Explained

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.

There are two forms of panthenol: D and L.

Panthenol is famous due to its ability to go deeper into the skin's layers. Using this ingredient has numerous pros (and no cons):
Like hyaluronic acid, panthenol is a humectant. Humectants are able to bind and hold large amounts of water to keep skin hydrated.
This ingredient works well for wound healing. It works by increasing tissue in the wound and helps close open wounds.
Once oxidized, panthenol converts to pantothenic acid. Panthothenic acid is found in all living cells.

The best exfoliator i ever tried. I think it's the best choice for those who has stubborn blackheads, because it literally melts them away. People with sensitive skin should be cautious, because it's an intense product and maybe too harsh for sensitive and dry skin types. I would highly recommend to use a deeply hydrating mask and restore skin's barrier after the procedure, because as I said Show more
Very good but beware it’s very strong. It says use once or twice a week but I would recommend once very 2 or three weeks. If it’s too strong for you, use the Glycerin Acid Toner 7%. After that don’t put any toner. Pair it up with Hyaluronic acid of your choice and a very moisturizing cream in the night time and you’re all set :)
