Zikel also indicates the presence of AHAs in the formula, known for promoting gentle exfoliation and gradually improving the appearance of irregularities and dark spots. However, this claim should be viewed with caution, as the full INCI list and the exact concentration of the acids are not published on the official product sheet consulted. 

For which skin types?

Particularly suitable for skin that is:

• dull or dehydrated;
• experiencing an uneven complexion;
• in need of freshness after cleansing;

Sensitive skin should start gradually, especially if the formula does indeed contain exfoliating acids.

Advice and precautions

Avoid the immediate eye area and application on irritated skin. Do not combine in the same evening with multiple powerful exfoliants or a retinol if the skin is not accustomed to them. Perform a patch test on a small area before the first use.
