BHA Exfoliator
BHA Exfoliator clears pores from the inside. Salicylic acid is oil-soluble, so it can travel down into the pore and dissolve the mix of sebum and dead skin cells behind blackheads. An ordinary face wash never reaches that far.
And it is not only blackheads BHA Exfoliator goes after. Once the congestion clears, pores look less obvious and blemishes settle. It is the same blockage behind both.
The salicylic acid is used at 2%, the highest level the EU allows in a facial product. The formula is kept to eight ingredients in total. Glycerin holds moisture in, protects against drying agents and reduces water loss through the skin. Betaine moisturises and calms. Liquorice root softens and cares for the skin, so clearing congestion does not leave you dry and irritated instead.
Use BHA Exfoliator in the evening after cleansing and before your serum, one to three evenings a week. Start at the lower end. Apply with a cotton pad to clean, dry skin. There is nothing to rinse off.
If you want clearer pores and fewer blackheads, BHA Exfoliator is for you.
BHA Exfoliator is fragrance-free and alcohol-free and is part of three of our regimens: for oily skin, for blemishes and for pores and blackheads. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your doctor or midwife before use.
98% natural ingredients. pH 3.5 to 4.0.

What BHA Exfoliator does:
2% salicylic acid, the highest level the EU allows in facial products
Works inside the pore, where sebum and dead cells collect
Fewer blackheads and less congestion
Smoother, more even texture
Glycerin and betaine hold moisture in while it works
Salicylic Acid 2%. Oil-soluble, so it works inside the pore rather than on top of it, dissolving the sebum and dead skin that cause blackheads. At 2% it sits at the highest level the EU allows in a facial product.
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate. From liquorice root. Softens and cares for the skin, which matters when you exfoliate regularly.
Betaine. From sugar beet. Moisturises and calms irritation along the way.

Materials and recycling
Packaging is the part of the product you throw away. That is why we spend time on it.
The tube itself on Niacinamide Serum is made with 63% post-consumer recycled plastic: plastic that has already been used and collected, rather than newly made. The cap, and the rest of our bottles and tubes, are still virgin plastic, and that is the part we are working on.
Not everything is plastic. Some products come in glass, others in aluminium that is itself recycled material. Both can be melted down and used again many times over.
Our outer cartons are paper.
How to sort it
Plastic bottles, tubes, pumps and caps: plastic. They do not need to be clean.
Glass bottles: glass.
Aluminium tubes: metal.
The carton: paper.
We are not there yet, and we are working on bringing more of our packaging along.

Why it works
The difference between AHA and BHA comes down to one thing: water-soluble acids work on the surface, oil-soluble acids get into the pore. Blackheads are a pore problem, so surface exfoliation alone cannot solve them.
Salicylic acid dissolves in oil, so it travels down through the sebum and breaks up what is blocking the pore. The formula keeps everything else out of the way: eight ingredients in total, no fragrance, no alcohol drying the skin out on the way. That is why it clears congestion without the tightness that usually comes with it.

A beta hydroxy acid. Unlike the AHAs it is oil-soluble, so it travels down into the pore rather than working on the surface, and dissolves the mix of sebum and dead skin blocking it. Salicylic acid exfoliates the skin and clears the pore, so blackheads and congestion look less visible.
From the root of the liquorice plant. Documented to soothe and to calm irritation, which makes it a good fit for sensitive or blemish-prone skin.
An amino acid taken from sugar beet. It draws water into the skin and helps hold it there. Betaine is documented to moisturise, to calm irritation and to reduce age spots.
