Key Features

Glycolic Acid (15%)

Acts as a chemical exfoliant to remove dead skin cells and stimulate cell renewal.

  • Enhances skin smoothness, reduces fine lines, and helps even out the complexion.

Provides soothing properties to calm sensitive or irritated skin.

  • Helps maintain a balanced, calm complexion.
  • Reduces the likelihood of irritation from exfoliation.

Mechanism of Action: Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Helps reduce redness and discomfort. Skin Conditioning: Supports wound healing and barrier function.

Panthenol (Provitamin B5)

Moisturizing and soothing agent for gums.

  • Promotes healthy gums and oral mucosa.
  • Helps reduce gum inflammation and supports overall oral health.

Mechanism of Action: Panthenol is converted to pantothenic acid (Vitamin B5) in the body, which helps maintain mucosal health and has anti-inflammatory properties.

Tocopherol (Vitamin E)

  • Enhances skin health and reduces signs of aging.

Mechanism of Action: Tocopherol neutralizes free radicals by donating electrons, preventing oxidative damage to skin lipids and proteins.

Dimethicone

Skin conditioning agent and emollient.

  • Enhances skin smoothness and provides a silky feel.
  • Leaves skin feeling smooth and reduces the appearance of fine lines.

Mechanism of Action: Forms a protective barrier on the skin, preventing moisture loss and improving texture.

Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A Palmitate)

Promotes cell turnover and collagen production.

  • Reduces wrinkles and improves skin texture by promoting epidermal renewal.
  • Results in smoother, firmer skin with reduced signs of aging.

Mechanism of Action: Converted to retinol and then to retinoic acid in the skin. It binds to nuclear receptors, influencing gene expression to increase cell proliferation and collagen synthesis.
