Our Calendula Resurfacing Serum leaves an instant illumination and radiance with just one use. 10% PHA and AHA gently remove dull, flaky, and dead skin cells from the surface, restoring skin clarity and smoothness. This leave-on exfoliant helps to reduce the appearance of blemishes, improve photoaged skin, even out skin tones, and minimize fine lines, revealing healthier, younger-looking skin with a beautiful glow. WHY WE LOVE Yanique Duke If you have a sensitive skin, PHA is a great way for exfoliating without the irritation. PHA is great for you because it gently refines those pores and gets all the gunk out of the pores without coming up with extra irritation that we did not call for! AVA LEE This actually helps to get that pores tightend. I soak this serum in the cotton pads and focus on my areas where I have a little bit more whiteheads. It really helps with the skin's rough texture and also gives you a radiant skin. THE TECHNOLOGY WHY IT'S SPECIAL • 10% PHA + AHA: The combination of 10% PHA (Gluconolactone) + AHA (Lactic Acid + Glycolic Acid) provides essential exfoliation with minimal irritation. PHA has a larger molecular structure than other acids, penetrating the skin more slowly and thus exfoliating more gently, making it ideal for sensitive, easily-reactive skin types. • Optimal pH Zone: Formulated within an optimum pH range of 3.5 to 4.5, where the exfoliants can remain stable and unseparated, maximizing the serum's effectiveness of exfoliation. • Gentle Daily Exfoliant: Calendula, a naturally healing flower rich in antioxidants, soothes and calms even the most sensitive skin. It's a low-irritant skin refiner suitable for daily use. • Moisturizing Sebum Care: With the addition of skin-replenishing 2% Hyaluronic Acid, hydration is delivered deep into the skin layers, preventing dryness after exfoliation. • Vegan & Cruelty-Free KEY INGREDIENTS 10% PHA & AHA Gentle chemical exfoliators that help shed dead skin cells on the skin surface and dissolve accumulated, hardened sebum plugs, while preventing sebum from becoming crystalized. This gentle but effective exfoliating duo revitalizes the skin, leaving noticeable radiance after use, minimizing the appearance of pores and fine lines, making your skin look and feel noticeably softer. Calendula Known for its long-term effectiveness in gentle skincare, this natural ingredient provides effective management for low-irritant skin care, soothing, and supplying moisture. HYAL 7 COMPLEX Enriched with HYDRATIVE™, this complex provides moisture care, resulting in improved skin texture and a radiant complexion.
