Irene Forte 
Apricot Penta-Acid Polish

A deep cleansing polish, containing a unique combination of six physical and chemical exfoliants to help clarify and refine the skin. Gluconolactone, a next-generation Polyhydroxy Acid, helps to regenerate and repair the skin barrier. The presence of hydroxyl groups benefits natural moisture levels, boosting skin hydration. This gentle-action exfoliant also fights against free radicals to delay the signs of ageing skin. A quadruple blend of high-quality Italian Alpha Hydroxy Acids, including Tartaric Acid from Grape, Malic Acid from Apple, Mandelic from Almond, and Citric Acid from Lemon, help to renew the skin further. These acids work to protect Collagen and stimulate Fibroblasts to produce new skin fibrils, as well as helping improve skin hyperpigmentation. Apricot Seed Powder works to effectively remove dead skin cells, while Aloe Leaf Juice hydrates and soothes.

Suitable for all skin types, especially combination, oily, dull or tired.

We do not believe that CLEAN products are a must or the answer to every skin care problem. But we want to provide a quick guide for those who want to avoid certain ingredients.

Our Clean Beauty concept is primarily defined by the ingredients you won't find in the products with the CLEAN icon:

BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole), BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene), chemical sunscreens, EDTA, ethanolamines, ethoxylated ingredients (Ceteareth-20, emulsifying wax, PEGS, polysorbate-20, polysorbate-40, steareth-20, sulfates), formaldehyde, methylchloroisothiazolinone and methylisothiazolinone, methylcellulose or 2-methoxyethanol, nitro- and polycyclic musk, parabens, petrolatum and paraffin, phthalates, resorcinol, silicones, animal by-products (with the exception of lanolin and beeswax), toluene, triclosan and triclocarban.

With this icon you can see at a glance which products meet the standard of our CLEAN Guide.
