Active ingredients:

• Lactic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that provides delicate exfoliation by breaking down the bonds between dead skin cells. In addition to its mild action, lactic acid is noted for its ability to enhance natural moisturizing factors that attract and retain moisture, thereby contributing to the proper functioning of enzymes, ph balance, skin firmness and elasticity.
• Phytic acid is an acid that acts at the surface level of the epidermis, providing a mild but deep cleansing effect. It has anti-inflammatory, moisturizing and brightening effects. This acid helps to get rid of age spots, and thanks to its powerful antioxidant properties, prevents the appearance of new ones. Phytic acid also enhances microcirculation, improves skin elasticity, evens out skin tone and
• texture, and stabilizes the function of the sebaceous glands. Another feature of phytic acid is that it reduces the ability to absorb harmful substances, so when it gets into the deeper layers, the acid decomposes into new substances, activates cell division, and starts recovery processes. It does not cause irritation and allergies.
• Niacinamide is a form of vitamin B3, an essential nutrient that is involved in many cellular processes in the skin. It has many benefits and powerful anti-inflammatory properties. It controls excess sebum on the skin, helping to significantly reduce enlarged pores. The ingredient improves the appearance of the skin, evens out skin tone, gives radiance, and smoothes fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin B3 also strengthens the natural skin barrier and renews the skin's surface, reducing the effects of harmful environmental influences. In addition, it prevents
• transepidermal moisture loss, prevents skin dehydration, and supports the natural production of firming ceramides.
• Papain - provides delicate exfoliation of dead skin cells, as it has the ability to destroy proteins. Thus, it evens out the skin's relief, cleanses it and stimulates regeneration. Papaya contains an extraordinary amount of ascorbic acid, one fruit includes about 300% of the daily value of vitamin C, as well as malic acid. Therefore, in addition to exfoliating properties, it provides a brightening, restoring effect after active insolation, tightens pores, smoothes superficial wrinkles, and tones the skin.
• Kojic acid is a natural acid extracted from mushrooms. The main feature is the ability to block tyrosinase, it attaches to the active site of tyrosinase, leaving no room for the amino acid tyrosine. Tyrosinase is an enzyme that forms the melanin pigment in the skin. Thanks to its ability to block tyrosinase, kojic acid is one of the most effective brightening components in cosmetology.
• Gluconic acid - belongs to the AHA acids, but at the same time has an extremely mild and regenerating effect. Gluconic acid softens, increases the level of skin hydration, exhibits antioxidant properties, relieves inflammation, stimulates cell renewal, and serves as an effective antiseptic, kills harmful bacteria, contributing to the gradual and gentle improvement of the skin.

The pads have two sides - smooth and textured - and two ways to use them. Use the pads in your evening routine on dry, clean skin, avoiding the eye area.

Method 1. Use the smooth side of the pad to wipe the face and neck in circular motions to prepare the skin for the serum and moisturizer. Do not rinse off.
