  Active Ingredient: Benzoyl Peroxide Benzoyl peroxide is a breakthrough, time-released, powerful acne-fighting medication available without a prescription. Benzoyl peroxide is easily absorbed into pores where it works by interfering with acne bacterial metabolism through oxidation. Benzoyl peroxide has an antibacterial effect. It also has a mild drying effect, which allows excess oils and dirt to be easily washed away. Other Ingredients: Polyethylene Tiny micro beads that gently exfoliate the skin. Zinc PCA (Zincidone) Zinc PCA, the salt form of zinc, an essential mineral, and pidolic acid (PCA), which is included in the Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF), have exhibited a reduction in sebum flow. Cinnamomum Cassia Bark Extract, Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root Extract & Poterium Officinale Root Extract (Sebustop) A complex of phytoactive substances from burnet roots, ginger rhizomes and cinnamon is especially designed to help support normal oil production by reducing pore diameter and bacterial proliferation. Butylene Glycol, PEG-60 Almond Glycerides, Caprylyl Glycol, Glycerin, Carbomer, Nordihydroguaiaretic Acid & Oleanolic Acid (Ac.net) An association of oleanolic acid and nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) in an osmotic gel. Ac.net fights “breakout” by helping maintain normal hyperseborrhoea, hyperkeratosis and bacterial proliferation. Sodium Hyaluronate Sodium hyaluronate works to moisturize the skin and hair, and is said to be able to hold more than 1,000 times its own weight in water. By helping to keep your skin and hair hydrated, it helps your skin to feel smooth and supple, and increases your hair’s shine and manageability. Butyl Avocadate (Avocutine) Butyl avocadate is a patented, active ingredient derived from avocado pears to help support normal oil control for skin. Refreshing Acne Toner: Active Ingredients: Glycolic Acid Glycolic acid is the smallest a-hydroxy acid (AHA) and is isolated from sugarcane, sugar beets and unripe grapes. Due to its excellent capability to penetrate skin, it is most often used in chemical peels to improve the skin’s appearance and texture. Once applied to the skin, glycolic acid reacts with the upper layer of the epidermis, weakening the binding properties of the lipids that hold the dead skin cells together. Allantoin Allantoin is a moisturizing, soothing and anti-irritating, keratolytic and non-toxic agent useful in dermatological, cosmetic and veterinary preparation. Allantoin is a valuable agent which supports healthy tissue formation. Allantoin has a pronounced keratolytic and skin softening action, acts as a chemical debrider of necrotic and scaling tissue, cleansing up the areas where applied. Allantoin is effective at quite low concentrations, 0.1% up to 2%. Allantoin is a natural substance that accelerates cell proliferation and has a keratolytic action. It has been used for over a century to support normal healing and impart soothing. The amphoteric characteristic of allantoin permits combination with various chemical substances to form salts and complexes. In combination with various therapeutic substances, allantoin synergizes their activity, reducing at same time their side effects, sensitizing irritating or toxic properties. The complex and slats thus formed have been shown to possess useful dermatotherapeutic properties. Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice Topically, aloe vera benefits dry and cracked skin. Topical aloe vera application also helps to assure that when applying aloe products, the highest concentrations of the beneficial agent are delivered directly to the skin. Aloe vera products, when used as part of a daily skin treatment regimen, can help keep your skin healthy. Aloe vera oil is widely utilized in many high-end lotion, cream and gel products. Aloe vera is also a great skin moisturizer that helps to keep skin supple by bringing oxygen to the cells and, therefore, increasing the synthesis and strength of skin tissue. One of the main reasons aloe vera has become so popular among consumers is that it possesses incredible moisturizing properties. Studies show that aloe vera improves the skin’s ability to hydrate itself, aids in the removal of dead skin cells and has an effective penetrating ability that helps transport healthy substances through the skin. Cinnamomum Cassia Bark Extract, Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root Extract & Poterium Officinale Root Extract (Sebustop) A complex of phytoactive substances from burnet roots, ginger rhizomes and cinnamon is especially designed to respond to the problems of oily skin by supporting normal pore diameter and bacterial proliferation. Butylene Glycol, PEG-60 Almond Glycerides, Caprylyl Glycol, Glycerin, Carbomer, Nordihydroguaiaretic Acid & Oleanolic Acid (Ac.net) An association of oleanolic acid and nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) in an osmotic gel. Ac.net fights “breakout” by reducing hyperseborrhoea, hyperkeratosis, inflammation and bacterial proliferation. Chamomile (Anthemus Nobilus) Chamomile is best known as an ingredient in herbal tea preparations advertised for mild sedating effects. Chamomile is an essential oil that delivers a soothing and pleasant, natural scent to the formula. This ingredient contains azulene, a substance known for its calming and carminative properties. Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Extract Hamamelis virginiana extract contains generous amounts of tannins which are potent, soothing, cooling and useful in supporting healthy skin.
