We've included a number of very important ingredients proven in medical studies and clinical trials, which have shown the ability to rejuvenate, heal, and promote cell turnover during the exfoliation process.
Carnosine, which is an amino acid, has been proven to significantly reduce the degradation of protein in the skin, and behaves as a very potent antioxidant.
Alpha lipoic acid has faired well with many medical studies and clinical trials, and for good reason. It not only helps correct imperfections in aging skin, but smooths roughness and can correct photo aging damage.
Panthenol, which is also known as vitamin B5, has been shown to decrease water loss in the skin. The National Center for Biotechnology Information lists panthenol as a skin protectant with anti-inflammatory properties. It can help improve skin’s hydration, elasticity, and smooth appearance.
