When to use:
At night, maximum three times a week.
Features:
Betaplex Smooth Skin Complex is a combination of alpha and beta hydroxy acids in a rich, emolient cream formulation designed to help stimulate new skin cells to the surface by encouraging dry, lifeless old cells to fall away. This stimulating process will help restore a youthful looking translucency, smoothness and color to the skin.
Alpha and beta hydroxy acids help to peel off the dead layers of skin. While alpha and beta hydroxy acids do not technically alter the structure of the skin, they indirectly help stimulate the formation of fresh, new skin by causing a replacement of the skin cells that have been lost due to exfoliation.
Contains 8% alpha and beta hydroxy acids in adjusted pH cream base to facilitate skin absorption.
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 fruits.
Contains malic acid. A naturally occurring alpha hydroxy acid found naturally in apples, cherries and other fruits.
Contains salicilic acid. A naturally occurring beta hydroxy acid found in willow bark.
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.
Regular use will dramatically reduce the visible signs of aging—rough, opaque, life-less looking skin, fine surface lines and wrinkles.
When used as directed this creamy formulation helps to slough off old skin cells, to reveal a smoother, fresher complexion and encourage a healthy glow to the skin.
Promotes a clear, fresh, radiant complexion.
Can be used by women and men, particularly those with dry, sensitive or mature skin.
Generally, improvement in the overall appearance of the skin can be seen within 8 - 10 weeks of daily use.
