DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Use it like a toner, either on a cotton pad or pour a few drops onto your fingertips and gently pat it into your skin, like men do after shaving. Wait for it to absorb (you can brush your teeth in the meantime), then follow up with your favorite serum and moisturizers.
IMPORTANT: The product contains BHA (salicylic acid), do not use if you are allergic to aspirin.
GOOD TO KNOW: This exfoliant contains only hydroxy acids that DO NOT make the skin more sensitive to the sun, making it a gentle exfoliant, ideal for summer.

Calm Down
MAIN FEATURES
A gentle and soothing exfoliating liquid designed for very sensitive and redness-prone skin. PHA acids are the gentle sisters of the better-known AHAs that similarly remove dead skin cells from the skin's surface, but without the potential irritation that comes with high amounts of AHAs. PHAs are also great for hydrating the skin and giving it additional antioxidant protection. BHA or salicylic acid is also a gentle exfoliant known for its anti-inflammatory properties.
We combine PHA and BHA acids with several soothing, antioxidant and hydrating ingredients so that Calm Down not only gently exfoliates but also soothes and hydrates the skin. If you have sensitive skin or are looking for a really gentle exfoliant, you've found it.

WHO IS THIS PRODUCT FOR?
Anyone who wants a gentle exfoliant. Especially recommended for sensitive skin, during the summer, or if you are already using other powerful active ingredients in your routines such as a strong retinoid product.
It's also a great option if you're just starting out with exfoliating acids and want to take it easy and start with a gentle option. In this case, it can be combined with Smooth Out. Experiment by alternating them until you find the ideal exfoliation strength and frequency for your skin (for example, using Smooth Out twice a week and Calm Down the rest of the time seems like a good routine to start with).
Type of skin
Sensitive skin, all skin types looking for mild acids
Problem
