Ukrainian beauty brand Cocos presents its Phytic Peel. This is a highly effective and at the same time affordable product for at-home chemical peels. It delicately removes dead cells, excess sebum and other impurities from the skin surface, makes the skin super smooth and soft, restores its natural protective barrier, and stimulates collagen and elastin production in the epidermis to slow down skin ageing. Contains 20% of phytic acid. PH 3.
The key active ingredient of this chemical peel is phytic acid, also known as inositol polyphosphate or inositol hexakisphosphate. Its molecules are larger than the molecules of alpha and beta hydroxy acids, which means that its exfoliating effect is more gentle. As a result, phytic peel is a great solution for dry, sensitive, and teenage skin, as well as for people who’ve never used chemical peels and aren’t sure how their skin is going to react.
Phytic peel can be applied at home to combat skin problems such as undesired pigmentation, enlarged pores, ichthyosis, acne scars, fine lines, etc. It can also be used to treat couperose-prone skin and as a skin lightening product.
What is especially great about phytic peel is that it does not increase the skin’s photo sensitivity, which means that you can use it all year round. In addition, phytic peel doesn’t cause skin redness or irritation, and it takes the skin less time to recuperate after this type of chemical peel. As a result, you can use it anytime, anywhere, even during your lunch break at work!
Cocos phytic peel effectively removes dead epidermal cells, produces a strong antioxidant effect, and protects the skin from UV rays.
