Technology or Active Ingredients
This anti-aging cleanser's active ingredient is a Natural Shiitake Complex, which is a natural antioxidant derived from shiitake mushrooms that are rich in vitamins and amino acids. Formulated with fine microbeads to exfoliate surface cells, the cleanser works to speed up your skin's natural renewal process and enhance the youthful appearance of your complexion in just 4 weeks.
The cleanser contains tulip tree extract and mallow extract. The tulip tree extract (amplified by Bioglucane) has de-polluting properties, which help to purify skin, protect the integrity of its natural defense barriers and maintain its overall eco-balance. The mallow extract has anti-inflammatory properties, which help to sooth and protect dry and sensitive skin.
