- Salicylic Acid/BHA: Oleosoluble acid (dissolves the sebum that accumulates inside the pores), known for its anti-inflammatory properties.
- Phragmites Kharka + Poria Coconut Extract: Natural extracts that work in synergy to effectively reduce inflammation and provide strong support to the skin to fight against external stress.
- Cactus Nopal + Yeast Extract: The unique combination of cactus and yeast extract contains peptides, carbohydrates, and low molecular weight minerals and is designed to soothe and hydrate the skin.
- Panthenol: It is a classic and reliable skincare ingredient that soothes, hydrates, protects, and restores the natural protective barrier.

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.

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 excellent for hydrating the skin and providing 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 various soothing, antioxidant, and moisturizing 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 summer, or if you are already using other potent actives in your routines such as a strong retinoid product.
It is also a great option if you are just starting to use exfoliating acids and want to take it easy and start with a gentle option. In this case, it can be combined with Smooth Out. Try alternating them until you find the ideal strength and exfoliation 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).
