Ingredient
Glycerin
What It Is

Glycerin works as a humectant, it attracts moisture from the air into the stratum corneum (top layer of skin), and due to its low molecular weight, will continue to draw moisture to the deeper layers of the dermis.

Glycerin also treats several skin disorders, ranging from dry skin to wound healing. The ingredient has the potential of improving your overall internal health as well.

Due to its versatility and ability to moisturise, it’s used in everything from lotions to soaps to toners.

What It Does

How to use in your skincare routine?

Products with glycerin can be used topically multiple times a day. You can safely and effectively use this ingredient in nearly every single step of your skin care routine. Several skin care brands use glycerin when formulating everything from cleansers and toners, to serums and moisturisers.

Benefits
  • Glycerin tightens and firms - Use this ingredient for a few weeks or even a few days and we think you'll find that it plumps and softens your look significantly, especially if you have more mature skin.
  • It improves your complexion - Glycerin is non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog pores.
  • It brightens - Between glycerin’s rejuvenating properties and its ability to moisturise, glycerin plays a key role in keeping skin looking bright and luminous.
  • The ingredient is also a good choice for sensitive skin. Because it’s a natural component of skin, it calms redness and inflammation. It’s one of the gentler ingredients you can find in skin care products and can even help alleviate sensitivity over time.
Vitamin B5
What It Is

Vitamin B5 is also called pantothenic acid and once consumed, its main function is to convert carbohydrates into glucose for energy. Nevertheless, it is also used in supplements and within skincare (applied topically) to promote healthy-looking skin.

Vitamin B5 found to have anti-inflammatory, skin barrier-strengthening, and wound-healing properties.

What It Does

How to use in your skincare routine?

The beauty of the ingredient is that it does not increase photosensitivity, which means it can be used both morning and/or night, and it plays well with other ingredients.

We advise you wash your face and use a toner to remove excess dirt and grime, then following that up with a lotion or cream that contains Vitamin B5. Because it's highly unlikely to cause any type of irritation, using it even multiple times a day shouldn't pose any problems

Benefits

Vitamin B5 has many beneficial properties from a skincare point of view.

Firstly, it stabilises the skin’s barrier which means that your skin retains more water, moisturising it and helping it to maintain its softness and elasticity. As a result, it becomes plumper and may even reduce fine lines as it smoothes the skin’s surface.

Vitamin B5 has also been recognised to help with more chronic conditions such as cystic acne, eczema and rosacea as it enhances the healing process of the skin and reduces blemishes.

This vitamin is generally gentle and safe for everyone with low chances of irritating the skin, and those with oily skin may also like it, as it provides very lightweight moisturisation.

Salicylic Acid
What It Is

Salicylic acid is derived from willow bark, it belongs to a class of ingredients called salicylates. It's structure is a little complicated, but understanding it is important to learning why (and how) it works so well.

When it comes to skincare products, there are two classes of acids you'll see often: beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs). Salicylic acid is a beta hydroxy acid. This means the hydroxy part of the molecule is separated from the acid part by two carbon atoms, as opposed to an alpha hydroxy acid where they're separated by one carbon atom.

Both alpha and beta hydroxy acids exfoliate the skin, but AHAs are water-soluble, while BHAs are oil-soluble. Generally, oil-soluble ingredients penetrate through the lipid layers between the skin cells more readily. In other words, oil-soluble ingredients can penetrate the skin at a deeper level than their water-soluble counterparts.

AHAs work well on the skin's surface to loosen old, dead skin and reveal fresh newer skin. Salicylic acid works deeper and is able to penetrate into the pores to unclog them.

What It Does

As with any exfoliant, it's best to start slow if you have sensitive skin or are prone to irritation. Salicylic acid-based products are safe to use daily once the skin has acclimatised. If you have oily skin, you are more likely to be able to tolerate this quicker.

If your skin type is dry or sensitive, it's more likely that salicylic acid could cause some irritation initially so a more gradual introduction may be required.

Benefits

Salicylic acid can get deep into your skin to do its job. This quality is precisely what makes it such a potent ingredient for targeting acne — especially for blackheads and whiteheads.

Once it penetrates the skin, salicylic acid dissolves skin debris that clogs pores, acts as an anti-inflammatory, and also helps red, inflamed pimples and pustules go away faster.

The ingredient can penetrate so deeply into skin that actually breaks down the connections between skin cells. Once it has penetrated the skin, the acid part of the molecule can dissolve some of the intracellular 'glue' that holds skin cells together.

Mandelic Acid
What It Is

Mandelic acid is derived from bitter almonds. It’s an AHA that’s been mostly studied for use with acne. AHAs are natural and synthetic ingredients that provide skin care benefits ranging from exfoliation to increasing hydration and firmness.

What It Does

You need to consider doing a patch test before using mandelic acid for the first time to see if they can tolerate it. People should start at lower concentrations and apply it no more than once a week.

You should also avoid using it with other chemical peels and exfoliants, such as retinol, other AHAs, and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs). Overusing chemical peels and exfoliants may lead to over-exfoliation, which can cause skin sensitivity and breakouts.

Acids may also dry the skin. After using mandelic acid to help soothe and moisturise the skin, a person can apply hydrating products, such as moisturisers.

Benefits

One main benefit of mandelic acid is that it may be more gentle on the skin compared to other AHAs. This makes it an ideal choice for those with sensitive skin. This gentleness seems to be due to mandelic acid being one of the largest AHAs, and as a result, it penetrates the skin at a slower rate. This makes it less irritating on the skin.

Mandelic acid also improves skin appearance because it promotes collagen production, which is the main protein found in skin and connective tissue.

Results from using this acid vary from person to person, but some people notice a difference in their complexion and appearance after a couple of weeks.

 

AHAs / BHAs / PHAs
What It Is

The world of acids can be divided into a few categories, three to be precise: Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs) and the underdog, Polyhydroxy Acids (PHAs). If you're using a skincare acid, it'll fall into one of these three categories.

AHAs

These may ring some bells as you're bound to find an AHA already hiding in your skincare routine. AHAs are chemical exfoliators that can be extremely helpful for oily or blemish-prone skin if used on a regular basis.
The top dogs in this category are Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid. You can find them mixed in with serums, moisturisers, cleansers and toners, depending on how high of a dosage you want to use (the smaller the percentage, the less potent the formula).

BHAs

Whilst they are also chemical exfoliators, AHAs and BHAs treat different skin problems.
AHAs are ideal for those concerned with ageing skin, whereas BHAs are best for those who are one the oilier side of the skincare spectrum and struggle with acne, blackheads and milia (the little white bumps you sometimes see under the skin).
Whilst AHAs are only water soluble, BHAs are oil soluble, which is why they are ideal for those struggling with an oil-slick T-zone. They can get below the oil that’s clogging up your skin and also have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. So they help spots disappear quicker and calm any redness.
The most popular BHA is Salicylic Acid. It can be found in a range of different formulas targeted at spot treatments.

PHAs

The underdog of the acid trilogy, PHAs don't get the praise they deserve.

"PHAs (AKA Polyhydroxy Acids) are very similar to traditional alpha hydroxy acids, because both work by breaking down the 'glue' that binds dull, dead cells to the surface of the skin." Daniel Isaacs, Scientific Director at Medik8

They're especially beneficial for those who find other acids too strong. 'Even very sensitive skin types can harness the resurfacing powers of PHAs,' says Daniel. 'In clinical studies, they have been proven to be compatible with dry, itchy skin conditions such as eczema and atopic rosacea.'
The most common PHA acids are Gluconolactone, Galactose and Lactobionic - bit of a mouthful to say but well worth looking out for the next time you’re in the market for a new chemical exfoliant.
