morning & evening

Sensitive Skin

Unable to tolerate the product in its most potent form yet

Use only in the evening. In the morning, wipe your face with a lukewarm, wet facecloth or microfibre sponge. This will help remove dead skin that the cleanser dissolves and loosens.
Apply cleanser to a wet face. The water will help neutralize the cleanser and decrease its potency. Be careful when applying the cleanser around your eyes, as the water may cause the cleanser to run into your eyes, which will sting. Rather, avoid the eye area and remove eye makeup (if applicable) with your microfibre sponge, using a small drop of cleanser mixed with water and lathered into the sponge.
Keep the cleanser in contact with your skin for 1 minute or shorter.
Remove the cleanser with a clean, lukewarm face cloth or microfibre face sponge. This will also help remove excess makeup and loose, peeling skin.

Resistant Skin

Able to tolerate the product in its most potent form

Use morning and evening.
Apply to dry skin. If you apply your cleanser to dry skin, you can circulate it over your eyes without burning or stinging.
You may want to dampen your fingers slightly to help with spreading. If you have resistant skin, you should not use too much water while cleaning, as water will alter the pH of the cleanser, rendering it less potent.
Keep the cleanser on your skin for 3 minutes or longer.
Remove the cleanser with a clean, lukewarm face cloth or microfibre face sponge. This will also help remove excess makeup and loose, peeling skin.
Tip: Keep the cleanser on your skin while brushing your teeth, bathing, or getting dressed.

mode of action

Unclog Pores

SALICYLIC ACID

Salicylic acid is lipophilic, which means it can penetrate oily skin and clogged pores, resulting in deep cleaning.
Decongests pores by dissolving and extracting dirt, oil, and cellular debris in the pores and follicles.

Anti-Aging

SALICYLIC ACID

Salicylic acid brightens the complexion. It acts as an exfoliant by softening and dissolving keratin, thus allowing dead skin cells to shed naturally.
Studies have indicated that Salicylic acid's exfoliating properties reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Over time, exfoliation helps to reduce the thickness of the layer of dead skin cells, giving the skin a brighter, more glowing appearance.

______

ALOE VERA

Antioxidants in Aloe Vera, combined with its support of collagen synthesis, contribute to smoother and firmer skin, helping reduce the appearance of aging signs

Regulate Sebum (oil)

Salicylic acid works well to balance sebum levels because it is lipid or oil-soluble. So, rather than remaining on the skin's surface, Salicylic acid penetrates deep into sebum-filled pores.

Microbial Control

SALICYLIC ACID

It inhibits the production of various aspects necessary for bacterial reproduction, such as fibrinogen, fibronectin, and alpha-hemolysis. Therefore, Salicylic acid may neutralize the bacteria C. acnes in blemishes.

______

ALOE VERA

Aloe Vera possesses natural antimicrobial properties that help protect the skin from bacterial growth, assisting in managing acne and promoting clearer, healthier skin.
Aloin and emodin components in Aloe Vera target bacteria, which supports the management of acne-prone skin without causing irritation.

Anti-inflammatory & Anti-acne

SALICYLIC ACID

Salicylic acid reduces sebum secretion.
Salicylic acid has potent anti-inflammatory effects, inhibiting the arachidonic acid cascade.
Salicylic acid reduces inflammation by modulating COX2 gene expression to decrease the formation of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

______

ALOE VERA

Aloe Vera contains compounds like aloin and anthraquinones, which provide anti-inflammatory benefits by reducing redness, swelling, and irritation in the skin.
Its anti-inflammatory effects help soothe sensitive areas and support a calm skin environment.

Exfoliating

SALICYLIC ACID

Salicylic acid works well to balance sebum levels because it is lipid or oil-soluble. So, rather than remaining on the skin's surface, Salicylic acid penetrates deep into sebum-filled pores.
Salicylic acid works by loosening and breaking apart desmosomes (attachments between cells in the outer layers of the skin). This action encourages the exfoliation of dead and damaged skin and unclogging pores.
Disrupts cellular junctions to exfoliate dead skin cells.

Barrier Support & Soothing

ALOE VERA

Its polysaccharides form a moisture barrier, preventing water loss and supporting a supple, balanced skin appearance.
Known for its gentle, soothing effects, Aloe Vera alleviates discomfort and irritation caused by environmental exposure.
Aloe Vera accelerates wound healing by stimulating collagen synthesis and cross-linking, which promotes skin regeneration in cases of minor skin irritation.
