The nail softening cream is so popular because of its mild fruit acid micro peeling which consists of glycolic acid, citric acid acid, malic acid and lactic acid, which ensures that the skin cells are removed gently. Glycerine and panethenol provide the nails, skin and cuticle with moisture, which peach core oil provides nurturing lipid components. The cuticle softener cream also contains Vitamin E-acetate.
FRUITY ACIDS: Glycolic Acid is from Natural fruit acids (alpha hydroxy acids or AHAs) to rejuvenate the skin by encouraging the shedding of old, sun-damaged surface skin cells. Glycolic acid is the alpha hydroxy acid most frequently used for Glycolic Acid facial treatments but lactic and citric acid are also useful. Fruity acids loosen the glue-like substances that hold the surface skin cells to each other, therefore allowing the dead skin to peel off. The skin underneath has a fresher, healthier look with a more even color and texture.
AHA (ALPHA HYDROXY ACIDS) FRUIT ACIDS & LACTIC ACID work by gently peeling away the uppermost layers of the epidermis, which is the top layer of the skin. This will allow the undamaged skin underneath to be exposed and create a smoother, more youthful appearance. Alpha hydroxy acids are best used to treat rough or dry skin because they do not remove enough of the skin to treat deep wrinkles, scars or intense discolor. The use of alpha hydroxy acid is especially useful in evening skin tone and the reduction of fine lines due to sun damage.
