AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Acids)
AHAs, such as glycolic acid, are water-soluble acids derived from fruits. They work on the surface of the skin to dissolve dead skin cells and promote cell turnover. AHAs help to brighten the complexion, improve skin texture, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and hyperpigmentation.
BHAs (Beta Hydroxy Acids)
BHAs, such as salicylic acid, are oil-soluble acids that can penetrate deep into the pores. They exfoliate from within, dissolving sebum and reducing inflammation. BHAs are particularly effective for treating acne and preventing breakouts, as they keep the pores clear and minimize the occurrence of blackheads and whiteheads.
Niacinamide
Niacinamide, also known as Vitamin B3, is a versatile ingredient with numerous skin benefits. It helps to reduce inflammation, calm irritated skin, and improve the skin’s barrier function. Niacinamide also enhances moisture retention, resulting in hydrated and glowing skin. It is effective in reducing the appearance of pores, fine lines, and uneven skin tone.
Pore Minimizing Complex
The Pore Minimizing Complex in the Skin Refining Toner works to purify the skin and reduce pore size. This complex helps to tighten the skin and refine its texture, giving you a smoother and more even complexion. By reducing pore dilation, it helps to prevent the buildup of dirt and oil, keeping your skin clear and healthy.
