INGREDIENTES CLAVE
- Ácido Mandélico: Es un AHA (alfa-hidroxiácido) que proviene de la almendra amarga y es conocido por su suavidad y propiedades antibacterianas. No solo exfolia la superficie de la piel, sino que también ayuda a combatir el acné (es especialmente beneficioso para pústulas (=espinillas), pero también ayuda a los nódulos inflamados), así como las marcas de acné pasado.
- Ácido Salicílico/BHA: Es un beta-hidroxiácido oleo soluble (disuelve el sebo acumulado en los poros). Es el producto estrella para el tratamiento de los puntos negros y los poros dilatados. Trabaja dentro de los poros, disolviendo las células muertas y el sebo que se acumula en su interior.
- Sarcosina: Es un ingrediente derivado de los aminoácidos, que ayuda a normalizar la producción de sebo (sin resecar la piel, también es conocido como inhibidor de la 5α-reductasa), reduce el tamaño de los poros dilatados y suaviza la textura de la superficie de la piel.
- Xylitylglucoside + Anhydroxylitol + Xylitol: Trío hidratante a base de azúcar, que aumenta la capacidad de retención de agua en la piel y fortalece su barrera de protección natural.

MAIN FEATURES
Light, fast-absorbing liquid exfoliant, designed to treat combination skin gently, but effectively.
The combination of mandelic acid and BHA salicylic acid exfoliates both on the surface of the skin and inside the pores. It also has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
The duo of acids is joined by sarcosine, an amino acid derivative that helps close enlarged pores and balance oil production. With regular use, Cheer Up combats several of the typical problems of combination skin, including enlarged pores, extra oil production, blackheads, acne, and post-acne marks.
Cheer Up is our award-winning, best-selling formula that won the Cosmopolitan Beauty Award for Best Scrub in 2018 in our local market.
