Salicylic Acid (BHA)
Salicylic acid is an oil-soluble exfoliant that’s uniquely able to burrow into your pores to clear dirt and debris from the inside-out. Its industrious, deep-diving skills make it a dermatologist favourite for upending congestion and clarifying texture. Works as hard as you do on a tight deadline.
Glycolic Acid (AHA)
A second exfoliant that smooths surface-level texture while absolutely not stripping your Very Important moisture barrier. Glycolic acid utilizes its teeny, tiny molecular weight to penetrate the skin and vanquish dead skin cells to reveal the fresh layers of skin beneath.
Lactic Acid (AHA)
Lactic Acid (AHA) A third—very gentle!— water-soluble exfoliant that also tames texture, while brightening and boosting your skin's resilience. Since it’s not oil-soluble like salicylic, it doesn’t penetrate deep into the skin, but actually loosens the ties between dead skin cells to exfoliate the top layer while brightening, smoothing, and sloughing away textured cells.
Niaciniamide
Niacinamide (B3) works with the natural substances in your skin to shrink the appearance of redness, and improve the appearance of uneven skin tone. Your skin's calm, logical, level-headed friend, niacinamide can also help to repair signs of damage.
Hyaluronic Acid
The CEO and President of Moisture & Hydration, hyaluronic acid ensures your skin doesn't reach desert-dry levels given PRESS REFRESH’s exfoliating acids take on a drying action. HA is a humectant, which makes it capable of drawing moisture from its surroundings and thus, a super excellent hydrator.
Allantoin
This multi-action skin replenisher extracts impurities and dials down redness whilst retaining your sincerely precious hydration levels. Allantoin has a side-project, too: rallying for elasticity. An extract from the comfrey plant, allantoin also has supercharged soothing properties. The trivia no-one asked for: Comfrey leaves have been used to alleviate skin trauma like minor cuts for centuries.
