Description
Geek & Gorgeous Calm Down is an ultra-gentle, soothing exfoliating liquid with 3.2% PHA + 0.8% BHA acids, designed for very sensitive skin prone to redness. It works to give a healthy glow while simultaneously soothing, protecting and hydrating the skin.
PHA acids remove dead cells from the skin's surface, but without the potential irritation that accompanies high concentrations of AHA. PHAs are also excellent at hydrating the skin and providing additional antioxidant protection. BHA or salicylic acid is also a gentle exfoliant known for its anti-inflammatory properties.
pH 3.5-3.9 | 3.2% PHA + 0.8% BHA
We combined PHA and BHA acids with several soothing, antioxidant, and hydrating ingredients, so Calm Down not only gently exfoliates but also soothes and hydrates the skin.
