KEY INGREDIENTS

Encapsulated 2% Salicylic Acid (BHA)

Salicylic acid promotes a visibly clarified complexion by decongesting and exfoliating from within the pore. Innovative encapsulation technology ensures 2% salicylic acid is gradually delivered into your skin for comfortable daily use - even on sensitive complexions.
2% Tranexamic Acid

An effective brightening ingredient which works to visibly even areas of uneven skin tone. This also helps to minimise the appearance of post-blemish imperfections and dark spots.
Sake (pronounced 'SA-kay') Extract

Derived from fermented rice water, sake extract is rich in natural amino acids and works to hydrate the complexion while supporting the skin barrier.
Aloe Vera

A naturally-derived ingredient which works to soothe sensitive, blemish-prone skin. Keeps it feeling calm and hydrated.
