Features:


Betaplex Facial Firming Water is a powerful combination of alpha and beta hydroxy acids. This oil-free formulation is designed to cleanse and tone the skin while helping to stimulate new skin cells to the surface by encouraging dry, lifeless old cells to fall away. This stimulating process helps restore youthful looking translucency, smoothness and color to the skin.
Contains 3% alpha and beta hydroxy acids in a pH adjusted, herbal solution.
Contains lactic acid. A naturally occurring alpha hydroxy acid found in sour milk and other fermented products.
Contains glycolic acid. A naturally occurring alpha hydroxy acid found in sugar-cane and fruit.
Contains malic acid. A naturally occurring alpha hydroxy acid found naturally in apples, cherries and other fruit.
Contains salicyclic acid. A naturally occurring beta hydroxy acid found in willow bark.
Contains rice wine extract. Legendary in Japan for its enhancement of beauty, the rice wine bath is 3,000 years old. Skin is so soothed and softened that the sake (rice wine) used for bathing sold in Japan is called ‘tama no hada sake’ or ‘skin-like-a-gleaming-jewel-sake’.
Contains witch hazel extract. Traditionally used as a skin freshener, local anesthetic and astringent, its skin enhancing ingredients are an abundance of tannins.
Contains red clover extract. The deep pink flowers have traditionally been used as a cleansing herb for skin complaints, due to their anti-inflammatory activity.
Contains skin benefitting phenolic glycosides, flavonoids and beta hydroxy acids.
Benefits:


Healthy, young looking skin has a texture that reflects light like the surface of a diamond, it is silky smooth to the touch, and has a healthy, rosy glow. Photo damaged and intrinsically aged skin no longer sheds dead skin cells at the same frequency as young skin. The result is a build-up of opaque skin cells creating the dry, devitalized, flat complexion—typical of old looking skin—which hides the fresh, new layer of skin beneath. It is this new surface that is revealed with regular use of Betaplex.
An all-in-one cleanser and toner, rich in hydroxy acids, helps stimulate the skin’s natural sloughing action to reveal a fresh, glowing complexion.
Designed to tighten and firm the skin.
Exceptional skin sloughing ability to help shed accumulated skin cell build-up.
Can be used by women and men (as an after-shave) with all skin types except those with very dry skin.
Generally, improvement in the overall appearance of the skin can be seen within 5 — 8 weeks of daily use.

all, except extremely sensitive

   Usage

To clean and tone, apply a few spritzes of Facial Firming Water to a corner of a dry terry wash cloth. (Note: tissues do not work).
Vigorously rub the dampened portion of the face towel over face (avoid eye area), neck, V of chest and behind the ears. The wash cloth provides friction and encourages dead skin cells to slough off. Repeat application if skin is heavily soiled or wearing make-up.
Apply treatment formulation or moisturizer of choice.
Note:
Within two minutes after application, a slight tingling sensation may be felt due to the higher concentration of hydroxy acid in the Facial Firming Water. This will subside momentarily. If discomfort occurs, rinse again with cool water and discontinue use. To enhance the exfoliation process, use an exfoliating mask once a week.
