Vitamin C: Brightens and energizes the skin and is effective at reducing overall redness. Glycolic Acid: removes dulling skin cells and helps Vitamin C (and anything else you apply after) penetrate more effectively. Canadian Glacial Clay: detoxifies, removes dead skin cells, and replenishes minerals to protect and renew the skin. Activated Charcoal: deep cleans by drawing impurities without stripping the moisture barrier, leaving skin CLEAN and smooth.
