UNDERSTANDING SKINCARE INGREDIENTS
There is a lot of skincare on the market and trying to understand their key ingredients and what they truly do can become very confusing! Today we are going to give you a simple and understandable description of some very popular ingredients in today's skincare.

- SALICYLIC ACID
Salicylic acid removes dead skin and can improve the texture and color of sun-damaged skin. It penetrates oil-laden hair follicle openings and, as a result, also helps with acne. - RETINOL Retinol is derived from vitamin A and is tiny enough to penetrate the skin very well. Retinol is proven to improve mottled pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, skin texture, skin tone and color, and your skin's hydration levels. - HYALURONIC ACID Hyaluronic acid is often touted for its ability to "reverse" or stop aging. Hyaluronic acid is a component of the body's connective tissues, and is known to cushion and lubricate. - VITAMIN F an essential fatty acid found in rosehip, sunflower, olive and flaxseed oils - is an unsung skincare hero.
