LITE-BRITE

A beta hydroxy acid that loosens not only the bonds of dead skin cells on the surface but deep into the pore lining where dead cells mix with oil and other debris, becoming trapped and creating the perfect environment for blackheads and acne to flourish.Salicylic Acid kills acne bacteria, balances excess oil production and invigorates the cells through a process of oxygenation. Compared to water-soluble alpha hydroxy acids, this type of acid is oil soluble, so it’s able to get through the oil, thinning it so it can flow freely to skin’s surface where your cleanser washes it away. Its oil-soluble nature makes it preferred for oily, breakout-prone skin but it’s gentle enough to benefit all skin types.

Also known as vitamin B3 and nicotinamide, niacinamide is a water-soluble vitamin that works with the natural substances in your skin to help visibly minimize enlarged pores, tighten lax pores, improve uneven skin tone, soften fine lines and wrinkles, diminish dullness, and strengthen a weakened surface.

Niacinamide also reduces the impact of environmental damage because of its ability to improve skin’s barrier function as well as supporting the skin to repair signs of past damage that can result in the skin appearing older, dull, and less radiant.

A compound found in wheat, rye and barley that can help treat acne and rosacea because it soothes inflammation and has antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. This “intelligent” acid works to gently exfoliate the surface of the skin, unclogging pores, refining texture, tone and color as well as inhibiting the production of abnormal pigmentation. Appropriate and supportive for all skin types, even sensitive skin.
