Cinnamon Bark Extract is taken from the dried bark of cultivated trees and is considered to be of much higher quality than extract derived from from leaves. It contains an essential oil that is not only recognized for its soothing effects, but is also known to have antibacterial propeties.
Glycolic Acid is one of the naturally occurring fruit acids derived from sugar cane. It helps slough off the dry, rough uppermost layer, leaving skin looking smoother and healthier.
Salicylic Acid encourages the sloughing of dead skin cells. It works by softening the intracellular cement and decreasing cell-to-cell adhesion, encouraging the shedding of cells in the stratum corneum layer of the skin. It is effective on acne, as it encourages the peeling of the top layer of skin and the opening of plugged follicles.
