BHA PHA Pore Refining Cleanser
Cleanser

A traditional, heavy-duty saponified foaming cleanser designed to tackle stubborn congestion. It relies on a matrix of Myristic, Stearic, and Lauric acids neutralized by Potassium Hydroxide to create a massive, dense lather. The addition of Gluconolactone (PHA) and Salicylic Acid (BHA) provides mild chemical exfoliation during the wash phase, successfully dissolving oxidized sebum plugs for combination to oily skin phenotypes.

Derma Care Ultra Light Brightening Vitamin Gel Lotion
Moisturizer

A highly unique, ultra-lightweight gel lotion that bridges the gap between a body lotion and a facial moisturizer. By combining a staggering 27-ingredient matrix including Niacinamide, Ceramides, and various botanical extracts, it hydrates deeply without heavy stickiness. However, the inclusion of Ethanol (drying alcohol) alongside Lavender and Rosemary essential oils makes it a significant risk for hyper-reactive or clinically sensitive skin maps despite its Derma Care labeling.
