Chemical Exfoliants
18% Mandelic Acid: an Alpha Hydroxy Acid representative. More gentle than Glycolic and Lactic Acid, yet still able to penetrate to clean out pores.
2% Salicylic Acid: a Beta Hydroxy Acid known for its anti-microbial, deep pore-clearing exfoliating action.
Killer Antioxidant
5% Niacinamide: a multi-functional workhorse. Niacinamide is one of the few ingredients out there that reduces the appearance of pores, regulates sebum production, brightens skin, and boosts skin barrier function over time.
