Key Ingredients
Mandelic Acid (L) (DL): Mandelic Acid (L), chirally correct, is a naturally occurring form of alpha hydroxyl acid (AHA) and is derived from bitter almonds. It can effectively retexture the skin but is a gentle acid that helps with acne, skin tone, skin texture, hyperpigmentation, and the effects of aging. Mandelic Acid is a powerful exfoliant that removes dead skin cells and accelerates cell turnover to help improve texture and complexion problems. It also promotes collagen production, increases skin elasticity, and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. Mandelic Acid works to inhibit melanin production and lessen hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and discoloration. For acne, this acid helps control sebum production, unclogs pores and helps reduce acne pitting and scarring. Mandelic Acid has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, is less irritating on the skin than other acids, and an ideal choice for a wider range of skin conditions and types looking for an improved appearance with fewer side effects.
Sodium Hyaluronate (L) (Hyaluronic Acid): Sodium Hyaluronate (L) (Hyaluronic Acid), chirally correct, is a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan found throughout the body’s connective tissue. It has been proven to moisturize the skin by attracting moisture in skin cells which reduces dryness and flaking by increasing skin hydration. It can also provide structure and volume to the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving the skin plump. Sodium Hyaluronate can also reduce skin inflammation, playing a vital role in wound healing processes by promoting cell migration and proliferation. It is excellent for treating skin irritation like eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis stemming from a compromised barrier.
Pinus Cembra Wood (Swiss Stone Pine) Extract: Pinus Cembra Wood (Swiss Stone Pine) Extract is a concentrated extract of Swiss Stone Pine, called King of the Alps, and contains pinosylvin. This is known to reduce inflammation through several biological pathways. It calms skin hypersensitivity and reduces local skin redness and color irregularities resulting from inflammation. It also visibly reduces redness and age spots and creates a more even toned skin for a youthful radiance. Pinosylvin is also known to have antioxidant, energizing, radiance, and brightening properties and protects from the effects of environmental stress.
3-O-Ethyl-L-Ascorbic Acid: 3-0 Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (L), chirally correct, is a derivative of Ascorbic Acid with hydrophilic and lipophilic properties. 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid is a very potent form of Vitamin C and is one of the most stable forms, enabling it to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin without causing irritation. As a huge antioxidant, it brightens skin tone, fades hyperpigmentation, decreases melanin formation, protects the skin from oxidative stress, increases collagen production, and maintains the activity of immune cells in the epidermis. It also is anti-inflammatory, improves skin elasticity, and helps control trans epidermal water loss.
