INGREDIENTS

SALICYLIC ACID

Salicylic Acid is a compound of natural origin, found in willow bark. Its main action on the skin is to produce exfoliation.

Exfoliation is crucial to open up the bumps and ingrown hairs and to prevent their formation in the first place.

ACETYL SALICYLIC ACID

Acetyl Salicylic Acid is the ester derivative of Salicylic Acid, and it has skin soothing and exfoliating properties. 

SKIN BRIGHTENERS IN BUMP & BLEMISH®:

Commonly used skin brightening agents like Hydroquinone and Kojic Acid show numerous adverse effects. They tend to be highly irritant and capable of inducing allergic reactions. Hydroquinone, in particular, is known to be toxic to the melanin-producing cells in the skin (melanocytes) and may cause them to die and produce white patches. BUMP & BLEMISH® does NOT contain any Hydroquinone.

BUMP & BLEMISH® contains 3 naturally derived skin brighteners to improve the skin tone.

• CHROMABRIGHT®

The patented ingredient Chromabright® is a novel skin brightener that has been tested for efficacy and safety with satisfactory results. It presents no side effects, good efficacy in vitro and in vivo.

The combination of Chromabright® with other skin brighteners leads to a product that acts faster and more efficiently than existing single components. Chromabright® is currently used in the most expensive skin creams all over the world.

• OXYRESVENOX®

The patented ingredient OxyResvenox® is Hydroxy Resveratrol, a naturally occurring analog of Resveratrol, the well known anti-oxidant from red wine.

Hydroxy Resveratrol is found in Morus Alba and other plants. It is 32 times more potent than Kojic Acid, and without the irritation and sensitization problems frequent with Kojic.

It has both skin brightening and soothing actions.

• SABIWHITE®

The patented ingredient SabiWhite® is Tetrahydro Curcumin (THC), a natural derivative of Curcumin.

Curcumin (also known as Turmeric) is a spice widely used in cuisines around the world. In addition to providing great flavor to dishes, it has health benefits that are now being well studied and documented.

Sabiwhite is a strong anti-oxidant and skin brightening agent. It is 7 times more active than Kojic Acid.

BORAGE OIL

Borage oil is the most concentrated natural source (20%) of Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid (EFA). Linoleic Acid is an essential component of the membranes of every cell in our bodies, including the skin.

Normally the tissues produce GLA from linoleic acid by the action of an enzyme named delta-6-desaturase. However, the skin lacks this enzyme, so it must get GLA it from the circulation.

However, typical western diets are deficient in GLA, so the supply from the circulation is low, and is best to provide it by direct application to the skin. GLA helps restore the skin’s normal appearance after treatments.

LAVENDER OIL

Contains a small amount of Lavender essential oil, a subtle natural fragrance suitable for both men and women. Lavender oil is recognized as having a skin soothing effect as well as in aromatherapy for its mood calming action.
