Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème

Mature skin faces a unique constellation of challenges that single-acid products cannot fully address. Dead cells accumulate on the surface, creating dullness, while oil and debris build up deep within pores, causing congestion and breakouts. Fine lines become more pronounced as texture grows uneven. This dual-action formula recognizes that comprehensive renewal requires working on multiple levels simultaneously—addressing both surface concerns and underlying pore health in one sophisticated treatment.

How It Works

First, natural glycolic acid—the smallest AHA molecule—penetrates the epidermis to dissolve the intercellular bonds holding dead cells to healthy tissue. Next, malic and tartaric acids provide complementary surface exfoliation while brightening and evening skin tone. Then, salicylic acid derived from organic white willow bark—a lipophilic BHA—cuts through sebum to reach deep within pores, dissolving the oil, debris, and dead skin cells that cause blackheads and congestion. Meanwhile, organic shea and mango butters deliver intensive moisture to counterbalance any potential dryness from the acid activity. Finally, a powerful complex of cranberry, bilberry, green tea, and seaweed extracts floods the skin with antioxidants, protecting newly revealed cells while supporting overall skin health and radiance.

Triple-Action Exfoliation System

Surface Renewal and Brightening: Natural glycolic acid from organic sugar cane works synergistically with malic and tartaric acids to comprehensively exfoliate the skin's surface. These AHAs dissolve the bonds between dead cells and healthy tissue, sweeping away the dull, rough accumulation that makes fine lines appear deeper. The result is immediately smoother, more radiant skin that reflects light beautifully.

Deep Pore Purification: Salicylic acid derived from organic white willow bark provides the BHA component of this dual-action system. Unlike water-soluble AHAs, this oil-soluble acid penetrates through sebum to reach deep within pore linings. It dissolves the mixture of oil, dead skin cells, and debris that clogs pores and causes blackheads, whiteheads, and congestion, leaving pores visibly smaller and skin remarkably clearer.

Nourishing Protection: While acids renew and purify, a sophisticated blend of organic shea butter, mango seed butter, and nourishing oils prevents the dryness and irritation that can accompany exfoliation. Antioxidant-rich cranberry, bilberry, green tea, and seaweed extracts protect vulnerable new cells from environmental damage. The result is comprehensive renewal without compromise—your skin receives powerful transformation and essential nourishment simultaneously.

When to Apply

-   Evening only after thorough cleansing

This product is perfect for treating and protecting:

Mature skin with occasional breakouts: When aging concerns meet adult acne, most products force you to choose between addressing wrinkles or blemishes. This dual-action formula targets both simultaneously—AHAs smooth fine lines while BHAs keep pores clear and prevent breakouts.

Rough, uneven skin texture: Accumulation of dead cells creates a bumpy, rough surface that makes skin look dull and aged. The multi-acid complex sweeps away this buildup, revealing smoother, more refined skin that reflects light beautifully and allows products to penetrate effectively.

Clogged pores and blackheads: When oil, dead skin cells, and debris accumulate deep within pores, blackheads and congestion result. Salicylic acid from white willow bark penetrates sebum to dissolve these clogs, visibly reducing pore size and clearing skin.

Fine lines and emerging wrinkles: Surface-level buildup of dead cells makes fine lines appear deeper and more pronounced. By accelerating cellular turnover, AHAs reveal fresher skin underneath while stimulating renewal processes that may help diminish the appearance of wrinkles over time.

Dull complexions lacking radiance: When skin loses its natural glow, it often signals sluggish cell turnover. The fruit acid complex removes the dull, dead layer obscuring your natural luminosity, revealing brighter, more radiant skin that looks healthy and vibrant.

Combination aging and oily concerns: Oily mature skin presents unique challenges—excess sebum production alongside age-related concerns like texture and tone. This formula addresses both with BHA, controlling oil, while AHAs provide anti-aging benefits.

Does Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème work for mature skin with breakouts?

Yes, Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème is specifically designed for those experiencing both signs of aging and occasional breakouts. The AHAs address fine lines, texture, and dullness, while the BHA from white willow bark penetrates pores to prevent and clear blemishes. This dual-action approach makes it ideal for mature oily or combination skin that needs comprehensive treatment.

What is the difference between AHAs and BHAs in Fruit Acid Exfoliating Crème?

AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids) like glycolic and malic acid are water-soluble and work on the skin's surface to remove dead cells, brighten tone, and smooth texture. BHAs (beta hydroxy acids) like salicylic acid are oil-soluble, allowing them to penetrate through sebum into pores. Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème combines both acids for complete renewal—on the surface and deep within pores.

Will Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème cause peeling or irritation?

Some users experience mild tingling, flaking, or temporary redness when starting Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème—this is normal as skin adjusts to the active acids. These effects typically diminish with continued use. Start with small amounts, apply less frequently initially, and increase gradually. If excessive peeling, burning, or irritation occurs, reduce frequency or discontinue use.

How often should I use Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème?

Begin using Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème with a small amount every other evening to assess your skin's tolerance. As your skin adjusts, you may increase to nightly use or even twice daily as tolerated. Always listen to your skin—some people achieve optimal results with every-other-day application, while others tolerate more frequent use.

Can I use Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème with other exfoliating products?

Do not combine Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème with other exfoliating products, retinoids, or strong active treatments initially. This can lead to over-exfoliation, causing excessive dryness, irritation, or sensitivity. Once your skin has fully adjusted to this formula, you may be able to alternate with other treatments on different nights—but watch carefully for signs of over-exfoliation.

How long until I see results from Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème?

Most people notice smoother, softer skin texture from Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème within two to three weeks of consistent use. Improvements in brightness and pore clarity often appear around the same time. More significant changes to fine lines, stubborn congestion, and overall skin tone typically require six to eight weeks of regular application for visible results.

Is Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème safe for sensitive skin?

Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème is not recommended for sensitive skin types. The combination of multiple AHAs and BHA may prove too stimulating for reactive complexions, potentially causing irritation, redness, or discomfort. This formula is specifically designed for normal to oily mature skin. Those with sensitive skin should consider gentler single-acid alternatives.

Do I need to wear sunscreen while using Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème?

Yes, absolutely. Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème contains alpha hydroxy acids that significantly increase photosensitivity—your skin becomes more vulnerable to UV damage during use and for up to seven days after discontinuing. Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF thirty or higher every morning without exception. This protection is essential to prevent sun damage from negating your results.

Can Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème help with blackheads and clogged pores?

Yes, the salicylic acid from organic white willow bark in Fruit Acid AHA/BHA Exfoliating Crème is specifically effective for blackheads and clogged pores. As an oil-soluble BHA, it penetrates sebum to reach deep within pore linings, dissolving the mixture of oil, dead skin cells, and debris that clogs pores and causes blackheads. With consistent use, pores appear smaller and skin looks noticeably clearer.
