  • Description

    Exfoliating, Clarifying, Moisturising

    The AHA/BHA Glow Refiner, with its natural exfoliating complex, not only clarifies impure areas of the face but also gives normal skin an even and refreshing glow. Concentrated AHA and BHA acids from fruit and plant extracts stimulate skin renewal. At the same time, fair-trade organic ingredients provide soothing moisture. This clarifying serum results in radiantly pure, smooth skin, maintaining a natural balance.

    Chemical Peeling Serum with AHA and BHA

    Natural alpha and beta hydroxy acids exfoliate the facial skin down to the pores, helping achieve a clean, even appearance with a special glow effect. The AHA fruit acids from summer fruits in our exfoliating serum renew the skin’s appearance.

    The 8% AHA active complex, derived from high-quality blueberry, orange, and lemon extracts, powerfully stimulates the skin. It effectively yet gently removes callused, dead skin cells from the top layer of the skin and can reduce pigmentation marks.

    Simultaneously, 5% willow bark extract, a plant-based BHA source, refines all facial skin and ensures deep cleansing, ideal for counteracting impurities. The vegan AHA/BHA Glow Refiner provides gentle chemical exfoliation that renews and clarifies the skin for a long-lasting effect.

    Aloe Vera, Mallow, and Jojoba

    Fair trade aloe vera intensively moisturises dry areas after exfoliation and soothes them with delightful freshness. Boosted by black elderberry, the high-quality mallow extract smooths blemish-prone skin with its pore-refining, clarifying action.

    Cold-pressed organic jojoba oil provides the skin with antioxidant protection against free radicals. In combination with fair trade apricot kernel oil, it regenerates the skin, leaving it noticeably soft and supple.

  • How to use

    Simply massage a few drops into cleansed facial skin before applying a care cream or as a stand-alone care product. Use preferably in the evening. Avoid eye and mouth area and skin contact with the pipette. Use 1-2 times a week at first and increase frequency as needed.

    Notice:

    • Slight tingling and redness after application are normal, especially at the beginning of use, as they are typical reactions of the skin to the exfoliating AHA/BHA acids. Both will subside after a short time as soon as the skin gets used to the exfoliating effect of the acids. However, please discontinue use if the skin overreacts or if you are pregnant.
    • After application, the skin is particularly sensitive to UV radiation for about 24 hours. It is therefore essential to protect the face from direct sunlight during the day. A sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher provides a quick remedy. Our favourite: Sun Protect Sun Cream Face SPF 30 or our Tinted Sun Care, both with natural broad-spectrum sun protection of SPF 30.
    • Mechanical peelings should be paused for the next few days.

  • Tips
    • Night-active: Applied in the evening before going to bed, the AHA/BHA Glow Refiner unfolds its pore-refining effect overnight. It thus ensures a truly refreshing beauty sleep - thanks to the extra portion of moisture. As part of the evening care ritual, the peeling serum has the advantage that the skin remains protected from the first rays of the sun during the most sensitive hours immediately after application. And as we all know, it recovers best when we sleep.
    • Cool stays fresh longer: In the fridge, even large fruits stay crisp, juicy and fresh for a long time. This also applies to the small AHA fruit acids, which remain stable and thus effective longer at low temperatures. The special highlight: a cool serum also gives the skin that special freshness kick.
    • Care routine: After an extra-care treatment with the AHA/BHA Glow Refiner, the skin should ideally be given a nourishing after-treatment with face cream. The products in our series can be mixed and matched according to the skin's needs.

The active ingredients

  • Silver Willow

    The bark extract of the white willow naturally contains BHA acid, which acts as a chemical peel on the skin. BHA (Beta-Hydroxy Acid) helps to refine pores, counteracts skin imperfections, and promotes their healing process.

  • Aloe Vera

    Aloe vera extract moisturises naturally. It prevents the skin from drying out by strengthening the natural skin barrier.

    We source our fair trade aloe vera from Mexico.

  • Hyaluron

    Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of skin cells that binds and retains moisture. We use 100% vegan hyaluronic acid obtained biotechnologically from microorganisms, which enhances the skin’s natural moisture depot.
