Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs):
Our serum features a 10% concentration of Glycolic and Lactic Acids, two of the most effective AHAs known for their ability to exfoliate the skin’s surface. Glycolic Acid, derived from sugar cane, is renowned for its small molecular size, allowing it to penetrate deeply and break down the bonds between dead skin cells, promoting cell turnover and revealing fresher, brighter skin beneath. Lactic Acid, a gentler AHA derived from milk, hydrates while it exfoliates, refining the skin’s texture and enhancing its natural glow.
Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA):
Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA):We’ve incorporated a 2% concentration of Salicylic Acid, a BHA that excels at penetrating deep into the pores to dissolve excess sebum and debris. Salicylic Acid is particularly effective for those with oily or acne-prone skin, as it helps to clear blackheads, reduce breakouts, and refine the appearance of pores.
Arbutin:
Arbutin:To further enhance the brightening effect, this serum includes Arbutin, a naturally mushroom derived ingredient known for its ability to inhibit melanin production, helping to reduce the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation. Arbutin works synergistically with the exfoliating acids to even out skin tone, leaving the complexion radiant and more uniform.
Polyporus Umbellatus Extract:
This rare mushroom extract is a prized ingredient in skincare for its exceptional ability to refine pore appearance and enhance skin texture. Rich in polysaccharides and antioxidants, Polyporus Umbellatus Extract supports the skin’s natural defenses while providing hydration, making the skin appear smoother and more even.
The result is a multi-dimensional exfoliating treatment that not only resurfaces the skin but also refines and clarifies the complexion, leaving your skin smooth, polished, and radiant. With regular use, the Saint Louve 12% AHA/BHA Exfoliating Serum helps to minimize the appearance of fine lines, uneven skin tone, and blemishes, making it an essential component of any advanced skincare regimen.
