Willow Bark contains natural salicylic acid that gently exfoliates within pores, dissolving the buildup of dead skin cells and excess oil that trigger breakouts. This botanical ingredient also delivers anti-inflammatory benefits to calm irritation and antimicrobial properties to discourage bacterial overgrowth. Complementing this, probiotics help rebalance the skin’s microbiome, strengthening its natural defense barrier and reducing the recurrence of blemishes.

Retinol accelerates epidermal turnover to reduce pore blockages and prevent new breakouts. By regulating sebum production and stimulating collagen remodeling, it refines skin texture, softens post-acne marks, and gradually improves the appearance of atrophic scars such as icepick and boxcar scars, while supporting more even skin tone over time. As a vitamin A derivative, retinol is considered the gold standard in acne treatment by dermatologists.
