What is Exfoliation?

Exfoliation is the removal of dead skin cells.

How does Exfoliation Work?

Keratinization is the process by which cells move through the dermal matrix to be shed on the surface in desquamation. Fresh new cells are formed in the lowest basal layer the Stratum Germinativum; during their life cycle they migrate into the upper epidermis, the Stratum Corneum. Upon reaching the outer 3-4 layers of the Stratum Corneum, the Stratum Disjunction, shedding is necessary as these cells require replacement.

Salicylic Acid as a Skincare Active

Salicylic Acid, known as a beta-hydroxy acid, is an organic compound derived from Willow Bark. It is partly made up of the same compounds of aspirin, making it a potent anti-inflammatory and mild analgesic. At the correct percentages and pH, Salicylic Acid has a lipophilic and keratolytic action on the skin, making it a key ingredient to treat acne and oily prone skins.

What is L-Ascorbic Acid?
