Key ingredients and their functions

How it works

The Glycolic Scrub 14% uses a combination of physical exfoliants like Jojoba and Silica beads to gently buff the skin's outer layer. Glycolic Acid serves as a chemical exfoliant, working to break down and remove dead skin cells, potentially reducing surface buildup. These actions collectively aim to enhance the skin's texture and appearance. The inclusion of cleansing agents like Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate aids in removing dirt and oils. Gentle conditioning agents such as D-Panthenol help maintain skin softness, while thickening agents like Magnesium Aluminium Silicate ensure a suitable product consistency.
