The Research

Complexion health, vitality and beauty are highly dependent upon the acidic pH of the Stratum Corneum, the skin’s outermost layer. Skin protects itself from the breakdown of its connective tissues) by upregulating enzymes that assist in collagen and elastin connective tissue synthesis.

These enzymes require acidic surface conditions to function optimally. Breakouts, premature ageing, pigmentation and other signs of environmental damage can occur when the skin is too alkaline (the opposite of acidic).

A nightly cleanse with a complex of hydroxy acids, phospholipids and amino acids can assist in gently recalibrating skin pH back to a healthy, acidic state, helping to restore clarity and firmness.
