AHA/BHA Exfoliant has a dual action effect, working on the skin surface and deep within pores to clear built-up layers of dead skin, excess sebum and blemishes – leaving your skin looking smooth, hydrated, supple and radiant. The exfoliant effect mimics the natural shedding of skin during youth, reversing visible signs of ageing as well as reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, dullness and uneven skin tone. This formula is balanced to pH 3.6 for optimum effectiveness of the AHA/BHA actives.
