GREAT EXFOLIATING PROPERTIES
The Image Ageless Resurfacing Masque has great exfoliating properties because the third and fourth ingredient is Glycolic Acid and Salicylic acid (respectively) . It also has Salicylic Acid which is a BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acid). The Glycolic acid and the Lactic acid are both AHA and are highly effective in removing dead skin cells. The Glycolic acid (derived from sugar cane) is known to be the smallest AHA and can penetrate the skin the fastest. It can breakdown the intercellular cement that holds the skin cells together. The Lactic Acid (derived from fermented milk) is a more gentle AHA than Glycolic Acid . It helps helps reduce acne and helps fight fine lines and wrinkles without the irritation that straight glycolic acid may cause to more sensitive skin types. The Image Ageless Resurfacing Masque also has Salicylic acid (derived from Willow Tree Bark or Wintergreen leaves) which can help break down oil and free up clogged pores. Because the Ageless Resurfacing Masque contains the three different acids, it can address all three types of break outs (flash colored bumps, red bumps, and red pustules).
