Exfoliants

Exfoliants are products designed to remove dead cells from the surface of the skin. They are important for promoting healthy skin and increasing the efficacy of other skincare products, but they require careful and periodic use.

While both AHAs and BHAs act as skin exfoliants, AHAs are what is known as “water-soluble,” and BHAs are considered “oil soluble.” What this means is that AHAs work on the skin's surface, while BHAs (like salicylic acid) work on the surface, as well as within the pores.

Serums

Serums are special products which address specific problems and improve different aspects of the skin.
