- Background
Exfoliation is a crucial aspect of a healthy skin care regiment that resolves various skin problems such as blemishes, clogged pores, and dry skin. Without exfoliation, dead skin cells build up and trap oil in the skin, creating an environment conducive to breakouts.; Alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) such as lactic acid (LA) work at the upper epidermal layer to loosen dead skin cells and promote skin cell turnover. LA also moisturizes the skin and stimulates collagen production to leave skin looking supple and rejuvenated.; Beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs) such as salicylic acid exfoliate the skin and clear clogged pores to promote healthier, clearer skin. After several months of daily use, BHA can even decrease the appearance of wrinkles and age spots.; There are several challenges when it comes to formulating with acids such as AHAs and BHAs:; Low pH of acids can cause dryness and irritation.; Low water solubility of BHA may require the use of additional, potentially irritating ingredients to suspend it in a formulation. These factors make it difficult to create stable, skinfriendly emulsions for topical use.
- HIGHLIGHTS
Powerful Against Blemishes Combines the benefits of both the alphahydroxy acid (lactic acid (LA) and glycolic acid (GA), and the beta-hydroxy acid, salicylic acid (SA), for the most desired effect.; Target Delivery: Due to its adhesive properties, SalSphere® technology is designed to deposit the actives on the surface of the skin where they are specifically required to exert their desired action.; Gentle, Slow Release:With the controlled release technology, SS CS releases the acids slowly and gently on the skin, therefore it is recommended for users with sensitive skin.
